Great lighting for an interesting shot. Might be better without the insect to the left?

I'm fighting with myself here. One one hand I hate those bugs. On the other my logical mind is saying "look at the photo.. not the bugs." My irrational mind wants to just give it a 5 and move on. My logical mind says that the photo has a special something and to give it a 6.

I like the lighting and the feel of a desert at sunset. The focus and DOF are nice. ...but man I hate those things! 6.. moving on!

Cool shoot. I love the overlook view. The sky looks very pixelated, though

Lighting is really great here! I wish it was just the one bug though.

needed to show a bit more of the city, the benches and the trees really distract the idea behind this photo, should've gone right between the trees and focused on that building straight ahead, that might of been the better shot, keep trying, nice idea

Greetings from the Critique Club.

Very well done. Exposure and processing are perfect. Lighting is good, but not great. There is no distracting glare and the shadows are just right. But the photo is a bit flat; the lighting doesn't reveal the 3-dimensional form very well.

I like the nice, simple composition. The white background works well (and the cell phone shows against it, quite a technical feat!). I do think the photo could use some more space at the top.

This is a clever idea for the challenge, and though it probably won't have much interest outside that context, it meets the challenge perfectly. Good job!
