The flash is causing some undesirable reflections.

I know this sounds silly, but the pointed end of your pencils is too short/steep. the shadow in front is a distraction as well.

WOW, that's a lot of lights! This appeals to me largely because of the composition. The lighted trees lead the eye right into the photo, and oddly enough, it looks almost like they lead to a TV (that tiny blue rectangle). One of my favorites in the challenge.

Hello from the Critique Club,

This type of image really jumps out at you and was a good selection for the challenge.

I feel a bit confused with this one regarding composition should you crop or shouldn’t you?. I would have preferred to see more of the left side of the broken head and the blue above the head is a little distracting.The head appears to be over sharpened just a little and the lighting is a little harsh but this is exaggerated with the rust colour.

Overall you have image with great colours and a very interesting subject matter but it just fell down a little in the execution (pardon the pun).

Wishing you all the best in your future challenges.

Merry Christmas

Take this image and do a color correction and place it proudly in your port as Fan2. The image remains impressive.

Love the graininess in this. Gives it a real "canvas / arty" look. Focus on the pencil tips seems a little too soft though? 8.
