Hey there from the Critique Club

First of all, congrats on yet another top 10 finish. Your placement is well-deserved, and probably should have been even better.

Camera Work/Technical: Very, very nice! I like everything about this image. Your focus is very crisp and your tonal range is terrific. Wonderful depth of field use to keep all elements in focus.

Lighting: While there are many strengths in this image, the lighting is one of the greatest strengths. Your lighting adds well to the overall flow if the image.

Composition/Content: Again, terrific. The textures and moodiness created by this image are great. Everything in the image works well to keep the eye moving and wondering what happened.

My Opinion: This was one of the best images in the challenge, and the voters appeared to have shared the same thought. I think it should have done even a little better.

Nice photograph. Meet the challenge well. I like the textures and the lighting along with the composition. I would of like to have seen a little more sharpness with the wall slats showing but still you have done a good job!
Bump to a 9

Nice. Needs some renovation, this room ... but it has nothing to do with my vote :-)

Great find for the room. Not sure what part of the world you live in but it's difficult to find those types of walls. Detail really comes out well in the boards. 9

What a great location for a photo. Great mood you captured here. I would love to see a little bit more lighting on the luggage. 8

What a great room - so dismal and derelict. Nice lighting, tones, and composition - I like it.

Very nice B&W tones, good setting and an emotive 'thing'. An image that seems to hold a hidden story.

A little dark, the luggage is almost lost in the wall. The duotone definitely works here but I feel if it was brightened up bit more of the wonderful detail could be seen. Nice choice for the challenge.

This is very good. My only nit is that it seems to me that the luggage would be the first thing to go, since it can be used to carry out sopme of the stuff.

Nice tones to match the feel of the room, good photograph.

Nice processing, and great empty room you found, but the suitcase might have had more punch if it were set back away from the wall. It gets a bit lost being that close to the wall.

Excellent :o)

I would have brought the suitcase forward a bit, but nice framing, composition and lighting, I like the tones too
