It's a nice idea...but not sure I like the fruit cropped like that. You should have raised them up so we could see them...I think you have stretched the topic a bit as well

Comment by HeiSch:
the contrast between the dark background, the bright flower and the darker insect is too big. something had to give...the flower. the buds in the right lower corner are a bit distracting and take away from the main object.

Hi, Greetings from the Critique Club:

Composition: I can understand why you have kept so much sky (because of the sign) but I feel there is so much that has been lost. The vacant area really takes the viewer out of the image. You basically want to keep the viewer trained on your image for as long as you can. The activity in the foreground is great but due to the technicals, it is lost. Therefore, the viewer starts looking for other areas in the image. The waves are great...and I feel the image could really take on a whole new perspective if you cropped to the man in white and his surrounds as per the thumbnail below. Can you now see the lights have given the image a strong diagonal and the man directs the viewer up to the activity of the wave. There is no lost information or areas in the image.

Technical: Whilst I am not one to stick to the rules of the histogram curve, I do feel there is way to much dark in this image for the subject. I can't even read the sign properly and I definitely can't see the expression on the peoples faces. I can see some expression through their movement but it doesn't tell me much of the story. There are too many blanks in the storyline. If your tonage was a bit lighter it would lend better but I feel you were concerned about blowing out the water and that is why you went in this direction.


Overall: I think this image has a lot to offer but has been let down in some general areas. Your tonage and composition range was huge and you had a lot think about at the time of the capture. You handled it well but I feel there is a lot of room for improvement.

I like the bright colors and simple composition. But the flower is so bright that the yellow is blown out in places, which makes it hard to see the detail on the flower.
