Sand... the Nature of Glassby
AndyMac24Comment by photokariangel: This is Kari Ann, greetings from the
Critique Club:
composition: the basket of glass objects is placed very well in the frame, along with the higher horizon.
color: Those colors just burst off of the page, working very well against the more subdued colors of the surroundings.
contrast: very nicely controlled even due to all the things going on in the image.
focus: sharp, and very well controlled, meaning its not over sharpened
depth of field: glad you didn't choose a wider aperture so that everything can remain in focus
lighting: good lighting, and good idea to use HDR, really makes this image stand out.
other: At first glance i had no idea what your picture was about or what it was supposed to represent, but with further analysis, its grown on me. Great job at choosing something different from everyone else, its nice and refreshing. Also, I see there is a little bit of artifacting around the edges of the grasses in the upper left corner. This was probably caused by compression in image size in post processing, or perhaps the HDR of that particular spot was hard. Anyways, it doesn't detract, but just a little note to be aware of in the future. i hope this critique was useful to you. If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to PM me any time.
