Dark image, were you trying to set a mood? Great texture, who would have dreamed Rust would be the cliche of the week? (attempting light/humor) This really needs something more (besides light), it lacks interest/reason to return and view this again. 6 Swash

Good texture, but the lighting somehow isn't right for the colors. 6 nards 656

Or is it "rust in place?" Getting is a little closer would show the detail of the rust better.

Meets Challenge9
Total Score7

For those that are just learning, like me.

Composition: Scoring in this area is based on basic composition of a picture and includes the rule of thirds, balance, cropping, and curved and diagonal lines. Subject matter that does not lend itself to the picture or otherwise unwanted is also considered here.

Originality: Scoring in this area is based on pictures or concepts that I have seen, as well as how much effort you have invested in the picture. Usually a little something that sets it aside from a snapshot. Does it make me want to come back for another look? You know things like that.

Technical Aspects: Focus, exposure, lighting, and other special effects (done by the camera), and post processing are all considered in this category.

Meets Challenge: This is based on my interpretation of if you, have/have not, met the challenge. This is fairly simple but quite important for this site.

There are many sites that can give you assistance in achieving better skills in photography, but I think the best way to learn is to take pictures and show them to other people. Believe me when it is a good one you will know it.

Good luck!

Comment by olya:
imho more focus on the rust versus the pattern formd with the lines is required.
