::: Critique Club :::
Hi, I am Kari and I have just completed the below critique on your image Neon Light as requested.
First Impression - the most important one:
Interesting picture, I remember those lighters from when I used to smoke .... damn that is something that I could have used them for once I quit!
Composition:
This is an interesting image, bright and probably underrated as suggested by your post challenge commentators. I like the leading line that drags my eye up oen lighter and into the other ... and the use of various colours.
Subject:
I think that you have met the challenge and met it well. A good and unusual choice of subject is something I kinda expect from you.
Technical (Colour and light):
It does appear well lit with the light bouncing off the lighters and creating nice bands around the rims. I feel that it is not quite sharp enough ... maybe this is a personal thing.
To grow its vote?:
It deserved better than it got, but I am not sure how much better.
I am wondering if the size of the picture didn't help with if being a bit smaller than 640 .. also did it loose any detail through compression?
Summary:
This is a good concept that you have taken and executed. The picture itself is nicely balanced and well shot.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.
Cheers.
Kari |

| Good idea and execution. I like the diagonal symmetry of the colors, and the placement of the lighter head within the composition looks good. |

| Nice idea. These types of studio shots usually stand a good chance at ribbons. This one didn't quite strike me as a ribbon shot but you think like a ribbon winner. I wonder if you already have some ribbons under your belt. |

| A good effort ruined by including the lighter head. It isn't neccessary for an effect image and it breaks up an otherwise pleasing abstraction of shape and color. The other beef is the whole image needs to be in sharp focus. |
