very low quality image. the idea probably has some potential, but would be better executed if you had shot an extreme closeup of one of the items with some people looking at stuff in the background...

Great shot for the challenge

This shot definitely has some interest to it, but the size is far too small to hold the viewer very long. I find myself struggling to make out the various elements in the shot. I think that a much closer vantage point, perhaps from the meadow itself, would have helped a great deal. While the subject (the goods for sale) is a bit too centered for my liking, the overall composition flows well with the town disappearing over the hill and the goods stretching to the bottom corner of the frame. The trees at the bottom are also distracting. Again with the sizing, its really hard to tell if everything is focused or not. Excellent idea and nice coloring, but definitely some room for improvement.

This one just isn't very interesting to me and is one where without the title, one would wonder what it is about.

In my opinion, the title should not be an important aspect to get your point across, the shot alone should do that.

I like the idea but it's taken from so far away that I look at it and say "huh, is *that* what it is." I wouldn't have known the subject without the picture title.

too small and not enough detail.

? ... i'm confused with this one ... small, unsharp, what, where, why ? :-)

I gave this a 3. Why? Well the farming equipment is way to small to make anything out, in reality they could be selling just about anything. Not what you would find in a magazine or newspaper article.

Looks a bit soft or out of focus. It could be because the focal point is a bit too far away

Nice idea but focus not clear.

Without your title I wouldn't have known what was going on down there. It looks a bit oversharpened or out of focus. I think it whould've been better if you had taken a closer shot at part of the sale.

Yes, this works for me for a small town newspaper.

maybe something a lot closer it sets the scene for an essay page 5 Of the Horowhenua Chronicle 4

What a wonderful shot, it's intimate somehow. Really good colours and fantastic composition.
