Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.

You have a lot of processing steps in your comments, but nothing to tell me what you were looking to get from your shot. Having this information helps with the critiquing further as when we know what you strive for we can tailor comments to that.

First Impression - the most important one:
Interesting shot ... taken in an office ... not too ho hum.

Composition:
This is where it works .... that person is in one third .. where the computer takes a half ... the phones line may behave like a leading line, but it doesn't seem to .. interesitng DOF .. and most appropriate that we can't read his screen ...

Subject:
Meets the challenge ...

Technical (Colour and light):
Good, well done .. office lighting is harsh as mentioned in the comments you got ... such is life really. you did great with what you had.

To grow its vote?:
It is a good solid shot, but not a stunning interesting shot. It works for the challenge, but I can't see this shot scoring higher ...

Summary:
Great work .. good to challenge yourself to do different things that you are not use to keep up the great work.

If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.

Cheers

Kari

fits the topic well but your post processing is too obvious, makes it look unnatural, and has become a distraction taking attention away from the subject

Strong DOF and the light from the computer works.
