For the Critique Club:
Composition: This is a straightforward photograph of a computer screen displaying Pac-Man. There is a shadow on the lower right, which is presumably a representation of a shoulder over which we are supposed to be watching the game. The more square framing would have been prefered, I think.
Technical: The screen is in focus and the display is clearly what it is, with no glare.
Theme: Both the colour and the sentiment match the Blue requirements.
Overall: This is little more than a photograph of someone else's art. The attempted POV is supposed to add value but, unfortunately, the shadow in the lower right does not have enough definition for the viewer to be sure that it was deliberate. Not a bad idea for the challenge, but I think the execution was flawed. |

| THis is just cute. Too bad the shoulder of the person playing is in the way of the picture. :-( |

| This would have been very good had you not had your finger over the lens. |

| Would score higher if there wasn't something blocking the entire lower right corner. This may be the player but we can't see that so it adds nothing to the shot but detracts from the pac man screen. |

| Besides being somebody else's art (pacman), the shoulder? covering the lower right corner? The rest is good enough, but those two issues knock off half your score. 5 Swash |

| I think the bottom right corner lets this shot down |

| besides the dark corner being distracting, is a picture of some one else's art work. |

| Would look better without the black 'shadow' at lower right. |

| Interesting idea... but not very well framed, and really not a very interesting subject. Also, are you shooting over someones shoulder, is that what the black is in the bottom right corner? |
