cool architecture, but nothing really compelling about the photo. looks like it's leaning to the right a little.

Nice processing and would make a wonderful poster (I'll be lenient on the crowbarred title) :-) 9

**Greeting from the Critique Club**

Well, the first thing I noticed in this image was either the sensor dust or dirt on the mirror. I would also have liked to see the "photographers comment" box filled out.

I would have like to see a tigher crop off the top as I find the negative space there to be a waste but just becase of its size. I like the angle of the glass but the water droplets on the rim of it I find to be a little distracting. I would have also liked to see the yellow from the lemon pop a bit more which could have been done through post-processing. Actually tho whole image could use a bit of brightening. There is no hotspots from the ice or glass which I find a lot of people don't see when shooting shiney objects. I do like the never ending mirror look tho as it draws the eyes into the nothingness. All in all it is not a shot I'd hang on my wall but one I would (if cleaned up) see in an advertisement. Good luck and keep up the good work.

nice posterlike image. doesn't create much mystery or hint at a story, but it is a bold simple image that could even be a logo for your movie.

Hey there from the Critique Club

Aesthetically, you achieved a fairly pleasing image, but this one really lacks creativity. Scoring 6.2+ on this one is about the best I think it could have done. Your focus is crisp and your exposure is dead on for this shot, but this type of image is well overdone on this site. Its just been done so many times in recent history, that I think voters are growing weary of it. You clearly captured a great image here that has fantastic elements and meets the challenge to a tee. Technically, the only issues I see are the glass reflection and the shadow at the top where the paper meets. I do believe that the symmetry serves this capture very well. I'd consider using past challenges for ideas and guideposts more than making attempts to recreate them. I hope that this critique helps out.

Nice high key would work very well for a movie poster. Nice composition also!
