Critique Club Review:

Brightness and Contrast: Image is mildly over exposed, which is part of the challenge. I think perhaps it could be taken up a bit more with an increase in the contrast. I'd like to see the rocks a little lighter, a little brighter, but would still want the figure dark the way it is now.

Focus and depth of field: Focus is nice and sharp. Depth of field is great.

There is really not much more you can do with this image. What makes the image is all the detail in the rocks, and the sky. If you brightened all that much more, the detail would be lost, and the final result would be less than you have now.

I see what looks like a small island beyond the subject. Perhaps that against a bright sea and bright sky, would have worked better for an overexposed challenge.

This is an excellent image, just one that has a harder time carrying the theme of the challenge.


Many thanks Alex for your good critique - much appreciated.

Great composition. Overexposure just enough for my taste, good job. Hope you don't get caught by DNMC police.

It could be more overexposed. The right side of the photo has excelent exposure, so it doesnt really work for the challenge IMO. Very nice image though.

Beautiful light and great picture. It's crying out for MDFGADH or whatever dislexics call HDR, but is it really overexposed. Ah, me - only on dpc could such a lovely picture be thought of as cheating.
