Grog say stand back. Grog have sharp pointy stick to kill monster. Grog be famous hero, like Don Quixote. Get picture in paper, have many females to bear Grog's children. Grog is great.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Aww and so I return the favour with a critique for you! Memory jog - you critiqued my Fine Arts pic.

First Impression: I thought this was a pretty funny picture, sure there's some distracting elements in it but I still liked it and gave you a 6. Too bad more people didn't agree with me.

Composition: Some of your commenters covered it but there are a few things that could be improved. There's a strange white mark on the left and I think maybe the shadow of the tail of the helicopter? Also I would have liked it more if the ceiling to wall line wasn't visible, just all beige. But you're shooting up at a ladder so not much you can do there, maybe shoot more straight on so the line isn't diagonal?

Subject: You covered a few childhood toys, barbies, helicopters, ladders. Alright I never played with barbies.

Final thoughts: I judged your photo on the artistic side more than the technicals, it was under appreciated though by the masses. Barbie deserved it, says right there DO NOT STAND OR SIT, psh blondes :)

Cool idea for the picture and i can really imagine Billy doing this but the top of the ladder is very distracting.

Too bad about the DQ. This is very creative. I guess too creative for the rules. :(
