Neat abstarct with cool shadows, just wondering what the numbers are all about.

Gina, Greetings from the Critique Club };-)

Initial thoughts
Interesting composition, meets the challenge, brightness and focus seem a bit off

Composition/ Content

I like the composition and the panorama feel of the shot. It is certainly interesting with the change in orientation of the houses. It seems to match the title well.

Background
Although I like the panorama feel, a bit more of the background of the hill may have reinforced your title a bit.

Camera Work - Technical
Focus seems a little bit soft and if possible, it would have been nicer to get a little closer to the interesting houses.

Digital Processing - Technical
I noticed that your comments were mostly about soft focus. I don't know if this was straight from the camera but it certainly could use a little post processing. It is a little small and you only used 110kb of the 150kb allowed in file size. This in itself would have sharpened it up. It still needs a little sharpening and some contrast and saturation could have made this a really sharp shot.

Fits The Challenge
Definitely fits the challenge well.

My Opinion On The Photo
I originally scored this shot a seven. That may have been a bit high but I liked the way it matched the title of your shot. I think if it was a bit bigger and a bit sharper and brighter you would have really scored well. Good job, and keep up the good work.


I would be happy to talk further about this shot if you would like to contact me.

I really like the high contrast of this shot, as well as the composition. Good graphic impact that catches the eye immediately. (8)

That is one fancy street sign. I like the angle your used; showing the funky building. Good luck.

Comment by Bullwinkle:
The crisp bright color scheme is very eyecatching. Extremely graphic look. The impact of the sign seems relatively secondary to the other visual elements. In otherwords the gratings, shadows and brick texture steal the show. An alluring shot just the same.

the photo doesn't make me think that the sign is the primary subject

Comment by Silver Fox:
beautiful color, composition, would like to have seen more of the sign on the bottom right and perhaps more of the roof and sky.
