Broken Window

Awesome subject, nice use of thirds for the window. I haven't decided on the B&W treatment yet but I have to mention the lack of straightening. The vertical of the window shoud be either vertical or way tilted, not just a degree and a half off like this. It gives the impression that ti's a sloppy job or that you don't care - neither of which are true I'm sure.

Love the colours and textures of this. I wish I could work out what this is ... and then I'd be able to work out what was broken.

This is a great subject, the DOF is really good and the quality colour values in the wood and the light through the stings are all really good. I find the composition a little too centred and there's something (a string?) angling from the head up to top-left. It really throws the perspective of the shot. It looks like a shadown and makes the image appear to be titlted.

Very nicely done and I do like the colouring. I find it perhaps a little too abstracted but am impressed by it as a piece of wall art

Quick Fixes to Broken Hearts

Excellent creative response to teh challenge. If you'd used the Rule of Thirds I think it would have had even more impact as it would benefit from the extra neutral white space. You might just get close to the front page with this entry - good luck.

I love fallen over buildings (see my Off-Centre entry:) I have a feeling this would beeven more appealing in colour but am mindful that you made a concious decision to turn it into a mono image.

Terrific subject and for one, the B&W treatment looks appropriate and has been very well done. I am really impresed with the highlight on the top of the break and the contrast of the white fallen stone and the blackness of the hedge behind it. Through all of that you have maintained the texture and subtle colours of the marble in the bit left standing. The composition has let it down a bit in that the rest of the cemetary becomes a distracting background. Not sure how to beat that though. Could you have got a more neutral background from the rise behind the grave? Or perhaps even just crop it tighter. Unfortunately you've fallen foul of my pet-peeve, images not squared up. All you need to do is rotate to get your verticales correct. When you don't do that, it gives the impression that you've been sloppy in your preparation

Good piece of camera art. The DOF, the de-sat colour, the composition are all really good. Well done.
