Sure have seen a lot of this place recently. The spewing lava stands out nicely. The rest of the photo looks to have some heavy noise reduction applied?

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Excellent focus, nice clean shot, great pov and use of thirds. So why didn't it finish quite a bit higher? I can only imagine that that is due to its being so stark and isolated, there really isn't a sense of place or story here.

Looking at your settings, I find it surprising that you shot at such a high ISO so I imagine you shot handheld. FWIW I would have brought along a tripod and slowed down the ISO and aperture quite a bit, left the shutter open for at least a second, if possible chosen a day with some weather happening to capture some scudding clouds/rain/sun/what have you. Could have been quite effective, especially given the title.

So technically, it's an excellent shot. Now all it needs is a stronger concept to help it place higher.

Feel free to PM me with any questions,

Susan
