Well Brin, you've put me in the difficult position of giving you some constructive criticism. I often see your photographs on the front page, and aspire to be as consitent as you.
You've done an excellent job at tackling the challenge theme. It is quite obvious a fill flash has been used to capture the details of the horse. I love how you have placed the sun behind the subject. It avoids overexposure in the sky, and also gives a halo effect around the main subject. You've balanced the photograph well by using the rule of thirds. If I had to find one thing to improve, I would prefer to see a little more snow between the horses feet and the bottom of the photograph. Such a minor criticism, but I wouldn't feel helpful if I didn't have something to contribute.
Keep up the good work!
If you need any clarification on any of my comments, please feel free to pm me. It might take some time for me to get back to you. |
Many thanks Jonathan for your good critique - much appreciated! |

| Very nice composition... spot on! The brightness next to the animals nose is a little distracting though... other than that this is pretty cool. |

Just having a quick look at all thumbnails and this jumped out. Exactly what I thought should be presented in the challenge. Subject is naturally backlit, photo exposed for the sky and surrounding landscape, and the subject then correctly exposed through the use of fill flash. Perfect match for the challenge.
Might be a little too closely cropped both top and bottom, but that is just me.
Great Submission. Really Stood out |
