Shadows of Red

ok this was my lowest scoring photo and I feel I owe it to you to at least explain why I feel this. First it looks like a photo of a carpet with a tiger on it. I would Have prefered a less flat image. Brokeh the only subject matter is the background at it being out of focus definately does not enhance the image. I have no clue what or why the red lights are so overpowering. They seem to serve no purpose, and do not flatter or enhance the tiger in the background. I don't intend to be insulting but if a low score is given I feel I should atleast try to explain my reasoning.

This would be damn near perfect if the person was looking in this general direction!

From the Critique Club.

Simple images like this do not work on DPC. The image is flat, depth is a highly enhancing feature to a photgraph. The light from your flash is to powerful. The straight on look does not work either. The image does have a title that fits.

It could be inproved by changing the angle, try shooting tlaying on the ground looking up, or off to the side. As for the lighting I would recommend no flash. Try using a tripod for stability.

A little too light on the face for me, but otherwise a great image. I like the beveled edge effect before the border as it seems to push the eye inward. Could use a slight counterclockwsie rotation to line up the posts and windows. Their alignment seems to cause a slight falling effect towards the right and tips the balance a bit too heavily. a 7.

creative, but if you would have really kicked it would it not show motion from the top of the foot also. 7

Nice use of short depth of field. Nice use of black and white. I like folds in the coat.

Very dramatic. Looks like a shot taken during a theater performance.

Position within frame very effective in conveying the message within your title. B&W treatment tastefully executed and nice DOF. I like the way your subject gazes away from the camera, as if lost. Nicely captured.
