from the Critique Club
I thought, at first, that this must be from a 'Blue' challenge, and got left over. An odd photograph, for an odd challenge. I'm sure you can see for yourself why it got voted down the way it did - the weird tonality, the punter's version of odd being different from yours (and mine, as it happens).
I kind of like the image though, somehow. Despite a bunch of stuff that ought not to work really - the mid-point horizon, a slight lack of real fine detail (as in may of your submitted images - enough to make me think it's more of style choice than an accident), and a certain vacancy about it all. Of course there's an implication of 'where's the fisherman?', but that adds a simplicity to it that might simply have been ordinary otherwise. I'd be interested to know your thinking around this one. |

| way too much blue. Can adjust this in photoshop type software by using color variations and hue shifts. Wood should not have that much of a blue tint, even next to water. |

| The blue cast doesn't seem natural to me. Without the title, I wouldn't get where you were going with this. |

| I love fishing off a wharf... a little less of a vibrant blue might give this photo a bit more 'punch' |

| I'm trying hard to accept your concept here, but it is too much of a stretch and completely reliant on the title for even that. I like the composition, but I'm not fond of the blue cast. |

| LOVE the blues. The graduation in the sky is super, and the lighting on the railing is nice, too. Nice placement of the pole. Very good composition. 10 |
