Custom Tint

Hello from the Critique Club!

Composition:
I like your composition. It's very strong and definite. You definitely KNOW what you're looking at. I like the fact that you can't see the rest of the car, it makes it a bit of an abstract.

Background:
Black, nice and simple.

Camera work:
The image is a bit over exposed on the right just above the mirror. Other than that, it looks ok.

Digital Processing:
Hmm... There's some really strange artifacting from your processing, and I don't think it adds to the image at all. I think a nice matte finish would have looked a lot better (in my opinion). Other than the artifacting, I can't suggest much else.

My opinion:
I like this photo, and I like the unique tinting on your window. I like the fact that it fits the challenge very snuggly, and I think there's a lot of potential! Great work, I always enjoy your pictures :)

Hello from the Critique Club!

An interesting idea!

Composition: As a few people mentioned in your comments, I think this picture is rather cluttered, and although it's obvious what the subject is, your eyes are being constantly drawn to other areas of the photograph. For instance, mine is being drawn toward the CD in that background which has some kind of reflection on it, and I just really want to know what is going on there. It would have worked better if you'd have propped the case as it is there, but without all the clutter behind it.

Background:
Too cluttered, honestly, people might not be sure of what they are looking at. As I said above, it may have worked better if you'd propped the diskette on something with a nice darkish background, maybe a cloth?

Camera work:
There seems to be a bit dark, although I'm partial to dark photos myself. I think if you had added a bit more light somehow, and had the table covered, you would not have had the weird bright mark just below the diskette.

Digital Processing:
I don't think you did any. You should try and do some experimentation, with levels and curves (those are my two favorites at the moment), and just try and see what you can come up with. You could have made this a lighter picture by just using curves, and hopefully without losing any of the colour.

Overall:
I think this photograph would have done better in a much more controlled environment. I know this is your first challenge, and I am hoping to see a lot more from you! Good work on your first go :)

I can't place why, but this photo looks straaaaaaaaaaaangely familiar. I like the fact that you can see the pin very clearly, I mean the details are great(!) and I love the graphic thingy on the left, and the base drawing. It all looks superb, bravo.

Coal to Diamond

Is this Redfig? If it's not. oops! Very very lovely picture. I would have made it differently by turning the diamond toward the camera. It would probably have added a million problems though. Good work. 9 -Annida

The composition, the colour, the framing, everything is just caught right. Even the bird flying through. I cannot fault this picture. The sun riding the waves too. Amazing. 10 -Annida

It looks like you're strangling the cat. Well, that's one bad thing, for starters. Then we have the look on the cats face which doesn't look best pleased. Also looks a bit haphazard.

Such beautiful little boys! (or girls)... The only thing that takes away from the perfect photo in this one is the fact that the one doggy is looking down! I hate being so picky... 9! -Annida
