Greetings from the Critique Club!
Hello! What a powerful message in just the title alone and the picture really does go along with that message, the divirsity, the fade from light to dark, the shadows.
But you said yourself in your notes, it was not nice to add so much noise to this shot. The different colors and especially the greens do not respond very well to the noise and grain in this image. The front part of the shot almost looks blown out on the sialor's stomach area and the harsh shadows do not help this image. I would like to see it without the grain to see if it will make as much a difference as I think it might. Or even a little less grain.
Also, if the front or even second row was in better focus, if you used DOF to your advantage it might really make this shot stand out a bit more, that and a fill flash to help with all those shadows, they just are really distracting to me overall.
But again, powerful message with a potentially powerful image.
Good Luck in future CHallenges!
