Sharp as a Tack

Comment by DigiFotoBuddy:
You can hardly see a tack. When a challenge is about tack, it should have been more prominent and should take larger area of the picture. Also, watch for te shadows.

Comment by Teafran:
An image that suffers from an unfortunate crop. The skyline does nothing for the image and while the author's intent is clear, it falls short of being properly executed. It might have worked better with a longer focal length, or perhaps a capture running along the lines of the tracks into the water using a DOF fade would have been a better choice. The image isn't as crips or sharp as it should be. A good entry into the challenge that just falls short of being average.

Might have cropped a little tighter at the top. The shadows detract from an otherwise good shot.

Comment by Teafran:
A technical success, it's less than successful in an artistic sense. The subject is less than interesting and overly relies on the person and not the tack. A little more thought and better framing would have brought the rating higher.

I'm not liking the shadows or background, but the focus and composition is good.

Comment by smudgeSMJ:
Background being too sharp and shadows from the flash are not great elements here.

What a strange and fun shot - I think the contrast could be bumped up a bit, but I am a high-contrast junkie :)
