I like the charbroiled lettering above the red tile roof. Someone should frame a copy of this and have it hanging in the next building that goes there.

I like the different tones in this image, but I have no idea what I'm looking at ;)

compo is nice, and I like the way the different tones are divided through the whole photo.

I like the duplicity of the guys in exact uniforms. The colors pop at you from the thumbnails.

Comment by Gringo:
This is not a bad shot as far as the composition goes. With his face looking down, it gives me the feeling that he has just been defeated. I think the color in this actually takes some drama away from the shot.
If you tone this one into an almost black/white with a hint of brown it really brings out a strong mood and would look pretty good in a frame surrounded by some other shots of him where his face can be seen.

A little too bright on the overall exposure, IMO. If you shot in RAW this can be compensated for. Expression is good and a strong point in the image. A bit too much negative space in the upper left, but overall a good capture of a moment - really shows emotion. Nice job!

Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.

The photographers comments are not only for post processing steps but when we do a critique, we go past just the photographic result, that's what voters comments do. The critique looks at what you were trying to achieve, how you wanted it to look and what issues you had in getting the image captured and ready for voting.

First Impression - the most important one:
This is a great use of a kids toy. Way to go and good concept and execution.

Composition:
Playing to the bottom coner worked well here ...

Subject:
meets the challenge .. but I hope didn't same the cap.

Technical (Colour and light):
The DOF is great .. the grass in fron is almost gone .... you could have cropped slightly more off the top to avoid distractions from there.

To grow its vote?:
This is your second entry and in the top 50 already ... you did awesome.

Summary:
Great work ... keep it up.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.

Cheers

Kari
