Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.
Interesting to do a critique on your image but it is difficult if you don't give us any information in your photographers comments. When we do a critique, we go past just the photographic result, that's what voters comments do. The critique looks at what you were trying to achieve, how you wanted it to look and what issues you had in getting the image captured and ready for voting.
First Impression - the most important one:
I really thought this was great .. a nice play on words .. and a good complementary colours.
Composition:
I think that you have cropped this well ... It is a little too centred for my true liking ... but I think this is learned through learning the rules of photography like the rule of thirds.
Subject:
meets the challenge and does it nicely.
Technical (Colour and light):
some have said the colours are flat but I think they are not bad ... it is a good Depth of Field ... and I like the focus for this picture.
To grow its vote?:
Keep thinking about your shots and how you crop things .. sometimes by having a slightly less zommed in shot and creating a wider berth around the image creates a lovely feeling of it being larger than it is ...
Summary:
I think this is a good solid shot... for 24 hours you did really good.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.
Cheers
Kari
