Memories of working on the fishing docks here, gawd what a smell. We all appreciate your DOF being as shallow as it was as the red left portion would not have been a pleasant addition to the rest. I have a hard time considering this candid, although it very well may have been taken discreetly, the image holds absolutely no emotion or revelation that a candid should.
Your target is almost exactly centered and would have been a bit more interesting if cropped so as to be in the lower left third. It is not an overly appealing subject and unfortunately falls flat to this viewer. The abundance of goo and vital liquids pushes it in to the realm of nasty (but in a good way, not like the picture sux).
I offer a 2 for this image. While a good capture for some uses, it does not seem to fit the challenge. |
