* Greetings from the Critique Club *
First let me say that I remember this shot from the D&L Challenge and thought it was creative and good.
Composition:
Really nice use of the space. I like the diagonal corner-to-corner line you used - nice variation on the rule of thirds. I also appreciate the fact that not only are the light and dark areas contrasting, but the blue & yellow are as well.
Lighting:
Good, but perhaps a bit harsh. Some of the highlights, while aren't blown, are a bit bright. However, the contrasting light and dark areas compliment each other well.
Focus:
Good, but not quite tack sharp. The added texture of the underlying material is a nice touch though, and adds yet another layer of contrasting elements (smooth surface vs ribbed).
Overall:
A strong entry IMHO. I think the score probably suffered a bit because of the title - there were so many "Dark & Light" entries. I think that this particular image was underrated because of the varying levels of contrasts you presented.
I also looked through your Portfolio - you have some fantastic stuff! And 200+ challenges? Wow.
Just my 2 cents... Very nice work. |

| I definitely like this. The textures add a lot to this. It wasn't that impressive as a thumbnail. You have to open it to appreciate it. |

| Clever use of light and dark. Interesting grooved base - is that plastic? I think this might have more pow if done in black and white although the high contrast of the blue and yellow is ok by me. |

| Nice image. The selection of what the blocks are sitting on was a good one. Adds interest and is a strong directional. 7 |

| the lined ground in which the blocks are laid is a liability to the attempt. |

| Of the "Dark(ness) and Light" titles so prevalent in this challenge; this is the best. Duplicity Leader |
