See the bonus turtle (reflection)?

Comment by Artifacts:
Nice framing and use of the rule of thirds. The image needs better focus on the turtle which is the main subject. It appears to be focused more on the turtle's water reflection in front of it rather than the turtle itself.

Sorry, I don't see how it meets the challenge. The caption might provide context that you happened to be somewhere and were able you got this shot, but if that's the challenge criterion, couldn't ANY picture meet the challenge?

It's a very good subject, but what story does it tell? It's just laying there. More creativity needed.

Nicely lit shot, but as a personal preference I would have prefered it to be stood on it's wheels, rhather than lying on it's side.

The centered position and the upward direction make a good composition for presenting this skate.

Comment by the-O-ster:
this doesn't excite me. the viewpoint is somewhat banal. the yellowish background seems bland. i wonder if you stood the skate up and put the camera on the ground next to it. i think the "larger-than-life" perspective might be a bit more dynamic. and a skating rink background with a disco ball might spice up the yellowish field.

Technically this is fine, but the composition is blaah. Where is the other skate? The laces spread out would of added some interest, maybe a flower, glove, helmet.....something else is needed here.
