Nice idea, like the guitar! It's a really shame about the pixellated edges, was it oversharpened? (don't worry - the amount of times I've done that...!)

Red and Crosses

Greetings from The Critique Club

Very good idea. It looks almost abstract. Meets the challenge's subject, there is no doubt about. Somehow... I wish the picture had some warmer tones. Even the red is a bit on the cold side. Nice use of DOF. If only the image wasn't that noisy... Maybe you intended a grained effect but it isn't working for me. The main subject looks well focused. I like the tree shadow on the background but I am not too crazy about the one in the foreground as it is so diffuse. But what do you do? Cut the tree out? Maybe a different time of the day would have helped... Now we will never know. But if you try a retake, make sure you have all three crosses in view. But try to lose the higher tower that is only partially in view. Try a different angle for that. Adjust the ISO to 100 if you take the picture during day time. This will lessen the noise.

Anyway, good work. It was a pleasure to comment on it even it is not your best and you know it. Keep up the good work. One of these days you will get a blue ribbon, I can see it approaching.

Best regards,
Elena

I'm afraid I don't understand the correlation between the photo and the title, not in deep thinking mood I guess. The photo is ok, but it looks a little bit oversharpened.

Just what does this underexposed, ill-framed shot of a guitar have to do with money swearing? What is meant by "propoganda all is phony"? This would be better suited as a tribute to Jerry Garcia or something like that.

This is good and very funny. I can just imagine someone giving directions and actually meaning this type of fork in the road and yet our conceived notion assumes the other. It's very simplistic and stark, not sure if you added the grain/noise or it's natural, but I like it. Contrasts are good, composition is good, I like the addition of the grass bank on the left. Good idea!
