This is in fact interesting. As if you had part of the wheel cloned out. I think the large border distracts.

Good, sharp detail and even exposure. Unnatural and underexposed sky.

Hi from the Critique Club

You asked for this shot to have a comment from a member of the Critique Club.

I gave this a 5 when it was in voting, here are the reasons why. With this being a Heida challenge, I expected a little more punch to the photograph. Moving closer to the tree, so that was the focal point. Instead I find my eye travelling all over the page.

A little more sharpness and boost in colours would have gone a long way too. Funnily enough, you used every single bit of the 720, but I am finding it too large. So maybe chopping off the bottom of the shot so it is closer to the tree would have helped with this.

this is a lovely landscape shot

I'm usually a big fan of shallow DoF but the two matches to the right of the unlit one are a little too in focus for the extreme oof match on the far left to work well together. I think if all the matches except the red one were more oof it would have worked better - if that makes sense.

I like the overall idea, colors, and lighting.

A rarely photographed view of a ferris wheel. Pin sharp, and a great angle. the wide border seems to help the comp as well. One of my faves. In fact it is going in my faves list.

very clear, the sky makes the photo super dramatic and really brings out the focus object.
