Critique Club:
First thing that hits you about this photo is that it's simply too small. Almost any image editing program will allow you to change the amount of compression when you save your image so that you can have the longest side 640 pixels long. This simple step will usually add at least 1 whole point to your scores.
The idea here for your photo is intriguing, and raises many questions. Is this person's faith being oppressed? Are the chains rusty because the faith has been oppressed for a long time? It looks like there are some great textures in this shot, but again it is impossible to tell as the picture is so small. It's a shame the top of the bible's spine has been chopped off by the edge of the frame... this looks unintentional.
So far, it looks like you have great talent... let's see larger versions of your photos! Try to have the longest side ALWAYS 640 pixels long! |

Way too small. I'm not sure what story you're trying to tell here. I think you could work on a better perspective, make the picture bigger, chose a better background, maybe even a heavier chain. 2 |

An interesting idea expressed more by title than by photo. The image I have is too small to really judge pictorial quality.
A 4 based on what I can see. |

Small photo seems blurry, but can't tell really because it is too small. |

An interesting subject. The composition is a little odd, by putting so much ground in the bottom of the frame - I think it would have benefitted from a slightly more diagonal positioning of the book as the binding of the book touching both edges of the frame just leads my eye off the photo. |

Nice idea - but the image seems very crowded. It's also difficult to read when it's that small. |

An interesting image. Is there some kind of editorial comment going on here, and if so what is it? |
