Greetings from the Critique Club -

Very cool shot you have here. One that probably looks even better larger than the size we are limited to here at DPC.

Very cool colors and your HDR editing is well done. It gives an almost creepy mood that can be associated with traveling circuses. I think my only suggestion would be to have a bit more sky and a bit less foreground. The reflection in the ground water is very cool and is a great balance to the trucks and tents, but the extra ground with no reflection seems a slight waste of space IMO.

Overall a really nice shot andthe voters rewarded you fo rit. While maybe not a PB a great score and excellent placing in a FS. Well done using the expert ruleset the way I think it was intended as well. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing more of you entries!

Tim

Very simple and beautiful. I love graffiti, great DOF, 4 wonderful colors, great overall. I do feel like your focal plane is maybe a foot in front of the railing? Not sure. Not a big deal.

Would benefit from more or less DoF.

This is fantastic! It looks like an old time carnival and the nostalgia just oozes out of the picture. I love how bright the lights are not just themselves but even in the water reflections against the darkness of the sky and the pavement. In my very humble opinion this should be a ribbon for you!
