The crop is not very appealing. I think that if it was a standard portrait crop this would score much higher from me.

I think with a different angle I would have liked this more potentially, but the grass behind it is a little distracting and doesn't really lend to the image at all.

You have a couple of spots on the clothing that are blown out. The lighting could be a litle softer and that may have helped. I would als say to show some lower back and add a little more interest to the photo. Not a bad shot, jsut could use a little help.

Lovely composition - very well lit - a tender photo.

The focus on the subject is missed, though I can't say it is very compelling. 5

Hi Susan

Greetings from the Critique Club

It's been a while since I did one of these for you :)

First impression of this image is that it is nice and cheery. The colours are great and it's a really good idea. However, I do feel the composition is somewhat cramped and a bit busy. I'm sure it would have scored higher had there been a little bit more space around the umbrellas, they just somehow feel far too squashed.

From a technical point of view I think the lighting is fine, nothing is really burnt out which could be a strong possibility.

Mainly I think with this image, it is the composition that prevented a score above 5.

It seems like maybe a "tweener"...between abstract and concrete. I think it would have worked better for me for this type of shot if the overall composition was cleaner. I don't mean more in focus, I don't really know how to explain it.
