Greetings from the Critique Club!

Initial impression: OMG I have to critique one of Don's pix, I not only have to make it sound like I know what I'm talking about, it also won the brown...! But this shot does grow on you.

Technical: Comp OK, lighting is ambient, maybe ap open a little more to 1/100 or so and f-stop one or two higher. Just a teeny-tiny itty-bitty bit oof.

Artistic: Very impressionistic, the dead leaves and blurry b/g give it a sense of surreality. Does that make sense? Actually the glowy blur does make the bug's wings look somewhat ethereal. Quite nice.

Overall: Ummm....err....*scratching head* I actually cannot think of a way to improve upon this shot. Well done! :-)

Feel free to PM me with any questions,

Susan

Nice ad-copy, but from personal experience, this photo is probably going to get "chewed-up" pretty badly...Sorry! :(

Congratulations on your ribbon. I really like this image. The blur and color blends are very pleasing to me. I like the grain too. And the subject is obviously very small and is sharp enough. So be proud of your ribbon. You earned it the hard way -- with a good image.

Not sure how this qualifies as a car ad. Wording is nice but It wouldn't inspire me to buy a Civic. Sorry
