Greetings from the Critique Club -

Looks like you had a great location to shoot from. The clock tower is interesting as is the castle or whatever it is on the hill to the upper left.

I think the one thing that woudl have gotten you a stronge rimage and a better score is a longer shutter speed. 1/30 just seems to slow to give you what you probably could have had. 2 seconds may have gotten you much greater detail, better colors in your skyline and just more light from the city in general. You would have also gotten som elight streaks from the cars on the road which would also bring an added aspect of interest to your image. I would go back again and try some longer shutter speeds to see some different results. Could be well worth it.

And let me just add that just because a challenge has the expert edit ruleset it doesnt mean you have to use that ruleset. More often than not when people go out of their way to use all that expert editing allows they end up with a product that suffers in quality.

You have some great work in your portfolio. Really stunning images. Keep up that great work and I look forward to seeing your future entries!

i like the locale and the composition, but it really seems subdued lighting - as if a much longer exposure would have worked better - but would have resulted in probably more motion of the cars than you were looking for

Greetings from the critique club!

Nice job capturing this cute kitty. The reflected window light is very nice, especially in the first image. As a triptych, I think the first and second images are too similar for this to work well. With a bit more variety I think this image would have scored much beetter.

Hope that helps. Good luck with your future entries.

the left two images are very close- having another angle would help this photo a great deal

I would like there to be 3 different poses. The left and right ones are nice, but the middle one seems to be just repeating the left one.

Lovely cat but a varied set of pics would have worked better as they are all too similar. Nice lighting though

The white material in the front is extremely distracting. Otherwise I would have given this a better vote. I do feel that the first two shots are a little too similar. Cute kitty.

Awwwh, cute cat.
The contrast between the eyes and the coat color is very lovely.
Great clarity.
And kudos to you for getting your kitty to stand still while modeling.
=P
