mob boss and contractorby
kendallComment by zadore: ...from Critique Club...
FIRST IMPRESSION:
It's a couple of guys at a construction site...nothing interesting.
COMPOSITION:
I agree with what most people told you on the comments: composition could be better. The fact that you cut off the left guy's arm really makes the shot weaker. What bugs me the most is that the two men aren't on the same 'ground' level, and it seems like the guy on the right wants to shake 'invisible man's hand because it seems that he is behind the guy on the left. Maybe it's my eyes...who knows. But I do think that a wider angle could improve this shot.
TECHNICAL:
The lighting is pretty natural and works nicely. Focus is good, although the bulldozer seems a bit soft.
ARTISTIC:
Only after reading the title could I start to put a story behind the shot. I, like many others, am not familiar with MOB and construction relationships. So this shot doesn't mean much to me. I can appreciate your effort though.
OVERALL:
I think that if there was more emotion from the mobster, and the angle was wider, it would make it a fairer photo.
SIDE NOTE: If that happens to BE a mobster, and YOU are related...then please ignore my comments...perfect photo! :)
