Cow at Dusk

Greetings from the Critique Club

So, I get to critique a Posthumous image - good job these are randomly generated. Don't shoot me :)

I am pretty sure you are aware of the reasons why you did not score higher, even without reading others comments or mine. I actually scored this a 6 because I loved the light captured on the trees and it was refreshing to see something other than a landscape for the subject. I do find the area just behind the cow to be a little too dark for my taste, but difficult lighting at that time of day.

I could add to others comments that the positioning of the cow was too central, or that the top of the tree was chopped off etc, etc, but really I believe those comments would be superfluous. It is a pity the trees are slightly out of focus too.

I haven't figured out if you were genuintely going for the brown or not.

Sorry I have not added any substance to this critique, but you know, it's pretty challenging to to critique this one!

I just commented on another shot and then found those comments in the comment section of this shot. Forgive me if you received comments from me on this shot already - but they did not pertain to your shot. The following comments do:

I'm having trouble blending the subject with the title. Assuming this is a shot of ice, I can see a sort of radiating freeze pattern - but it's not quite clear what the pattern is in the upper left corner of the frame.

Looks like ice. Nice detail in it but having a hard time seeing stars.

Comment by Melethia:
Is it just me, or does that cow have an oddly huge head? Nice light in the trees but the processing turned blown highlights into vibrant aqua bits. Who's to say they weren't there, though?

I'm afraid that what you have done (pro bono diphoco) is only slightly outrageous: your eye for colour and form betray you, and there is a cow. Vivat bovinia.
