Hi, Critique Club here...
Keep in mind this is only one person's opinion.
Firstly, I really like most of the image. The colors are great, I love the blur of the wheel, and I like the background with the hills and lights. I like the action shown with the blur of the skier and chair.
What I'm not so keen about is that while I like the blur of the rider on the lift, I would have liked just a hair faster shutter speed so I could actually see a person. The operator in the middle is awkward in that I don't think he adds anything to the image, but because he contrasts so much with the lights, he draws attention. I wish he was gone and the rider, a little more recognizable, was in the frame a little more. Of course the operator has to be there, so I'm just sayin...
One of the comments was that the picture really doesn't say "chair". I agree with that. While the challenge simply stated a chair should be in the photo, I think most people are looking for one that is more easily identified. If I were asked to describe this image, the word "chair" wouldn't come up.
But after all that, I do like the image. If I had voted in this challenge I would have given this a 6 or 7.
