this is a nice image, it just seems like there is too much open space surrounding the helicopter, i may have tried to crop it to get a better image, otherwise nicely done 4

I wish it was a bit easier to see the detail of the main subject. the background is both excellent and beautiful.

Critique Club Review

Overall this is a pretty good picture. Color is good, exposure very good, compression was a bit overdone. The artifacts around the flags tend to throw the eye off a bit. Good idea with the flags to show that the breeze is blowing the clouds into the picture. I think that a slightly different angle could help some. As it is, the left side of the picture seems to be a bit left out of the game. You did a very good job of keeping details in the clouds and the depth of blue to the sky. The only other thing that comes to mind is, that the eye keeps wanting to see where those clouds go. Over all a nice job. I think the picture is technically superior to the score you received. I would have rated it in the low to mid sixes. However, it lacks a bit as far as telling a story. (Carol Kings old song, "Every picture tells a story don't it?" keeps running through my head.) The next step is to tell a story with the picture. We can tell from this picture that it was sunny and breezy, but it is more of a deduction to get to warm. day, than a telling of the information. As to what you might put in the picture, ah there is the rub. It needs to come from the photographer, not the viewer. You've got a good eye and you are headed in the right direction.

Good idea for the challenge, to take it behind glass.

Great shallow DOF. Amazing crop as well, you have really managed to extend the image out long but at the same time cropping tightly!
