CRITIQUE CLUB CRITIQUE
by karmat
Welcome to the challenges! Topping 6 in your second entry is very good. I imagine I will be seeing more of your images towards the top in the near future.
Compositionally, this shot has some very strong elements. There is a nice balance between the sky and the foreground, and you haven't cut the horizon in half, which is nice. :) Also, there are three "elements" being silhouetted, the cyclist, the pole and the fence. This sets up a nice "triangle" which feels well-balanced. The fact that the pole is the highpoint and the cyclist and fence are similar heights also adds to the stable balanced feeling.
My only nit, compositionally, would be that there is too much space to the left of the rider. It think cropping it in just a touch closer would tidy the picture up some.
Technically, you have a very sound picture here. The focus, exposure, etc. all works together well to form a nice picture.
Overall, you have a nice picture that meets the challenge well. It is pleasant to look at.
Good work, and best to you in future challenges. If I can clarify or further explain myself, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you for voting and commenting! I'm pretty pleased with my final score since this is my second challenge. I do think 6.08 in 61st place is disappointing though, but congratulations to all those who scored even higher! :)

| Very beautiful sky and the silhouettes are very interesting. Seems to be an unbalanced amount of dark space at the bottom tough. |
