Very nice simple photo. The crop/composition is fine although a little tight next to your hand. I think all that is ok. Where you can improve I think is the glasses should never cross the eyes. Maybe get a little lower with the camera. The focus is great and right on. The image does seem a little red maybe taking that down a little would help. The lighting seems good although a little harsh on your forehead. Either way it gives nice depth to the photo.

I cheked out your profile and it seems to me I should be learning from you rather than me critiquing you. Either way here is my honest critique.

My first impression is I really like this image. The black and white was a great choice also. The crop selection is great and the focus is spot on. I wonder how it would look without the stethoscope. The only thing that seems to bother me is your necklace. But it is very hard to see. Either way I think you should have cloned it out. The shadows on this are showing great depth and therefore I feel your lighting is perfect. Great job.

First impressions, compositions is great. I like the tight crop. Focus is spot on where I think it needs to be. My attention immediately goes to your eyes. Which has a look of determination. I like the DOF which is making your chest blurry. I really like the fade to all black behind you. Job well done. The two things that I say would improve your photo is to try and avoid the hot spots on the sword and on your forehead. Really nice photo though.

Nice clean image. Composition wise it is perfect. The one thing that bothers me is it seems that the focus is directed more toward the landscape rather than the person. The blues are real nice but I think the sky would look better with maybe clouds or a tad more blue to it. But that is something you can't control. I really like the calmness of the water. It really adds to the photo.

I am bored and decided why not do a few critiques. Well I pull an image and it is this one. Such a great image is so hard to critique.

On technical merit there is really nothing I can add. I think the lighting is perfect. I love the colors and the focus is spot on. The wall really adds a lot to this and I really love the texture of it. The expression you have caught is IMO a perfect one also. You are really radiating happiness throughout this image.

I kinda wonder what you are looking at but that doesn't matter.

The only thing that really bothers me is the glare on the watch. But that is minor.

This image is great. I reallty love the colorful flowers and the eyes are great. Great shot IMO that could be improved if you just bump the saturation of the colors up a little to make them pop.

I think the big thing that hurt you is there are too many distractions in this image for me. The hair pins for one. The shadow also. It is an ok image with great potential. You have a really creative idea whihc can be greatly improved. My advice to you is to reshoot this with better lighting.

Greetings from the Critique Club!!!!

Technical The DOF is almost perfect and the focus is spot on. I can really see all the small detail in the lenscap.

Lighting The lighting is great. I can see the word Canon real good. I just wish the whole word was in focus.

Composition Compositon is good. You have compoased it to make it an interesting shot. Very nicely done.

MY opinion is that you have a very good image of a lens cap. I like the detail and the lighting and the nice colors the sorta blueish color is a very nice color to look at. You havbe executed well in my opinion.
