Critique Club critique:

Composition/Content: Very nice framing of the figurine and nice choice of subject. Nice use of white against black for a simple but striking image.
Lighting: The flash accentuates the contrast and maybe too much. Flash sometimes "flattens" out an image. I think reflected light or side light would have given this figure more depth and because of that more life. I would have still made it high contrast just different angle on the light.
Background: The upper corners are slightly distracting because they are the only things in the background that aren't black.
Camera Work/Technical: Excellent camera angle.
Digital Processing: I've seen some of my images have the gradients like the upper corners here, and they were caused by over processing the color levels and/or saturation. I don't know if that's what caused your gradients or not.
My Opinion: I like the image and think it is well done. I don't think upper corners were the reason for an average score. The image is striking but could use more depth with different lighting to make it more three dimensional.

I don't see this as a landscape, more as a fairly close up shot of some trees. The snow covered evergreens are interesting, but think of a 'treescape' rather than the close up branches.

I thought it was really cool too, but most people didn't agree I guess.
