 I made this duotone because there was just not enough color to keep it interesting The original colors really worked against the overall shot.

Greets from the Critique Club:

Hi Mark,
This is an appealing image, I like the colours you've used in the duotone process and it really puts me in the blueprint mood. The composition of this shot is good, but not excellent. I do like all the angles yet it still comes out feeling bit busy. Perhaps a simpler setup would have worked better? The glare doesn't bother me very much - I actually quite like the effect, but that's just me.

Hope this is helpful! Good job and good luck in future challenges.

Good idea and shot very well, the sepia toning you have chosen fits better than any other tone would have. Impressive! - 10.

I like the full composition, but the huge glare/hotspot on the left is throwing the shot off. My dad was a draftsman and used to design all sorts of structures, so this really brings back some fond memories for me. Thank you.

Nice composition for this drafting desktop. I would have liked to see more uniform lighting. Seems a bit harsh on the left.

Certainly fits the challenge but not especially interesting to view.
