Greetings from the Critique Club
First Impressions:
Pretty looking snapshot of a city.
Technical (Comp, lighting, color, focus):
While the rule of thirds is a guideline that should be broken at times, this is not one of those times. I think this shot would greatly benefit from aligning the group of buildings on one of the thirds. I do like how the railing and arch lead my eyes to the buildings though.
Great lighting on this and it all seems well lit with nothing blown out and the colors are cool and clear. Your focus also seems well done.
Challenge:
This meets the challenge so I don’t think any voters knocked your score down for that.
Artistic/Emotion:
With a slightly different composition I think this would have more of an artistic feel to it, as is it seems more like an unplanned snapshot that was lucky to have the railing to lead the eyes.
Summary:
I think this was an ok shot with parts of it well thought out and others just more like a snap shot. It didn’t deserve sub 4 votes but such is the nature of DPC. I would say this is a solid 5 shot with potential to be much better. The focus, lighting and colors are all very nice but I feel as though your composition hurt this more then anything. Your processing was done very well and you take some great shots so just keep at it.
