Comment by RLS:
I really liked this photograph. It was under rated. Seniors make such incredible subjects. They have such character derived from their years. Nice job.

...from Critique Club...

Hi Carey

FIRST IMPRESSION:
It's a truck...

COMPOSITION:
I don't think the centered composition does this shot any favours. Maybe you could have used the curves of the road to frame it a bit better. :(

TECHNICAL:
Good focus, good lighting :)

ARTISTIC:
I find this shot very uninteresting. I think that if the message on the truck wasn't there you would get even lower marks...but what can we do. All the wires on the top are very unattractive. :(

OVERALL:
Ok

Cheers and good luck in the future challenges.

I originally put this down for a 7, but after looking at it a while longer during the comments I changed to a six. The idea is great, but I really don't like the effect of the mirror. The image became too busy. There is also the doubling effect of the image in the mirror possibly due tot he angle of light. Still great concept. 6.

Take my comments for what they are worth for I am just a novice with a new camera. Dodo

I think a non-centred compostion would have been better.

I am so jealous of all these snow photos. Think I'll go back and give everyone of them a 1. And this is another good one too. Nice focus, really nice message on the truck in front of you. Nice avoidance of glare off the windshield, and that's not always easy, either. Nice composition with good execution. PTL 7

You got a lot of character here, tell her congratulations and Happy New Year. I think your crop is just in between, not quite tight enough and anot quite open enough. But otherwise a-okay.
