Very nice photograph & idea. A horrid Microsoft blue on the screen could have made the contrast even greater.

I got lucky with light and a window this morning picture

Thanks too all for the votes and comments.
Edited this one on a tired old screen, did not realize how oversharpened it was until recently. Looked just fine to me then.

Critique Clubber on assignment:

The pinwheel and the eolian generator, great idea, not only is there a spectacular difference of proportion in size and quality but also function wise: professional adult tool versus idle amusement for the younger. You chose to capture the size antagonism side of it only. Fair enough.
To improve this composition witch is either a little scanty or bare depending on how you look at it, I would start by off-centering the pole of the large contraption to either side and rethink the composition on these bases. If including more of the hillside in the frame rather than this uniform blue sky was possible, I would go for it.
Having a crisp, slightly more saturated, prominently positioned pinwheel in the foreground and one or several windmills (in or out of focus) in the distance would certainly be a good choice.
A kid and pinwheel running around in a windmill field, wouldn’t that make a great picture? Actually, I may do exactly that once. Thanks for the great idea.

All the best, JJ

Dont feel like doing the laundry

From a once and a time lazy Critique Clubber finally inspired.

A detached looking young woman, just out of a religious Italian Renaissance painting, attacked by fast, furious and uncontrollable cloth pins. The Martyrdom of St Anna by the Laundry Basket is about to begin. Great! The French Surrealists would have loved this one as much as I do, I suppose. That is, of course, before the title is to be read. Such a surprising and unexpected image could benefit from an adequately composed caption. Laundry phobia does seem a little short and mundane to match the challenge.
This well-done picture has great allegoric strength and would have deserved the top honors it predictably did not get.

All the best, JJ
