Good action, tough lighting. You've lost some impact with the front of him being in shadows. Of course, if he was turned around then it would be harsh? Maybe some fill-flash would have worked? Just a thought. Good luck.

I love the moment, the way the knife seemes to be heading for his face, and the way he seems to look at it.
good color, good angle.

The knife looks like on the cartoons where the knives have minds of their own. It has pointed at the juggler's head and is thus threatening. Great!

Greetings from the Critique Club...

Hi Ingibergur,

Firstly, congratulations on a well deserved top 20 finish. I have looked at your portfolio and you have some excellent work there.

You scored very well in this challenge but interestingly did not get a huge number of comments. DrAchoo has posted some useful feedback in that the sky and weed are the 'weak' areas of the photo. It also seems to be a little oversharpened IMO.

The conversion to black and white was a good choice for this subject and the evocative image works well and tells a story. Interesting that Pano points out that this would have worked for the perspective challenge. I see that you did enter something similar for that (so congratulations on capitialising on the location) I actually like your perspective entry a little more than this one, perhaps because of your excellent application of toning which adds a little to the shot.

Overall this is a great shot. Nicely seen and executed with only small potential areas for improvement. Excellent work, I look forward to seeing more of your photos in the future.

Regards Chris

NOTE:
It is possible to uncheck the critique option at any time during and after voting. You may find that you receive sufficient feedback through comments and your score that you may feel that you no longer require detailed critique.

Pretty Lady! Natural beauty! Most likely needs very little (if any) make-up or is quite the artist in applying make-up. You can't tell... Good blending. (My wife owns a beauty salon & I am a good listener.)
