Mean Mr. Mustardby
footfungasComment by ericwoo: Hey there from the Critique Club
First of all, congrats on your highest scoring entry to date. Also, this is a remarkable improvement, as echoed by the voters, from your first entry. Nice work.
Camera Work/Technical: Everything in the frame is nicely focused, and the white balance seems on as all the colors look exactly as my eye would expect them to look.
Lighting: I think that the lighting is the main strength of you photograph. You did a great job with the side light source. I really like the highlight on the curve of the knife handle. It is just enough to set it off from your black background.
Composition/Content: You had a nice start with the composition, but I think that your chosen crop feels a little crowded. I'd like to see just a little more space at the bottom of the bottle.
My Opinion: While not a Beatles fan (I don't know very many of their songs), I think that you met the challenge well. I am with you on this one, never heard it before. Nicely creative. I think that this one scored pretty close to its potential. It was just a little too commonplace to do a great deal better.
