Greetings from the Critique Club
by strangeghost
The first three parts of this critique are written based purely on examination of your photo. "Final thoughts" is written after reviewing your score, photographer's comments, and voter comments.
TECHNIQUE
Very sharp and well focused, nicely saturated colors, clear message. It's hard to find fault in this image technically. I assume that's a TV screen. It's not easy to find the right exposure to shoot a screen like that, and you've still managed to light the hands perfectly.
COMPOSITION
Very well balanced, perfectly composed/cropped. Nice angles created by having the TV screen skewed. The message is clear, even without the challenge description or title.
EMOTIONAL IMPACT
There is a significant humor component here, which I'm sure got a chuckle out of more than a few voters, as it did from me. Aside from that however, there's really not much to say. It's not a picture that makes one wonder or causes the jaw to drop. It's a nicely composed, technically flawless shot that just... just does it's job. It would make a wonderful stock image.
FINAL THOUGHTS
I didn't vote this challenge so I can't speak to how many similar shots there were, but I imagine out of nearly 90 entries, there were a few other similar concepts. Your score is a bit below average, but given the lack of a real "wow" factor, that's not hard to understand. Very well done on the comp and technicals though. |
