the most difficult dilemma of the day

the most difficult dilemma of the day
by Phileine

Comment by jpochard:
Hi from the Critique Club!

I like the tones in this shot, but I do wonder if color would have added more interest in this being a "choice."

The angle of this does add interest to the shot, and I think overall the exposure is pretty good - although I agree that the white shoes distract from the rest of the photo because of their brightness. So technically, aside from the white shoes, I like this shot well enough.

The subject choice itself does not really carry much interest for me. When I judge a photo's strength in meeting the challenge, I first look at the shot without a title and without knowing for sure which challenge it was in - and see if I can figure it out. I can figure it out with this one, so the connection to the challenge is there - I just don't personally find it an interesting way of conveying choice. I didn't vote on the choices challenge, but I would have given this one a 6.

Shoes might have made a more interesting subject with some color maybe -and a more unique composition? Maybe include some feet with a different shoe on each foot and a pile of shoes nearby? Just some thoughts.

I hope this is helpful!

Thanks all for the comments. I knew from the moment the voting started that I would score low, but the comments really made up for that. It's satisfying to know that there ARE some people who appreciate what I tried to do here.

i feel slightly cheated on your behalf here - no WAY did you deserve 13 ones and twos... the average 6.75 from commentors just goes to prove that you really need a bit of a moment to appreciate this, which obviously the speed voters didn't get. i thought this was a lovely composition, a nice modern bit of artiness and deserved to do far better.

This one caught my attention. Artsy and very different from the rest. Made me look longer imagining the colors extend to the grey areas.

It's a fun photo. I don't know if the colorized border helps or hinders. The grayed blocks could probably be a little more contrasting in shades.

Different and playful use of desaturation. Good job!

Comment by Philos:
It's difficult to see in this picture that is has been dammaged, maybe if you would have taken it from a different angle...

Comment by Glacierwolf:
Interesting concept using the outter part as a frame. It does detract from the yellow brick in the center, but, adds an overall balance to the shot. Pretty neat 'out of the box' idea - and the only one in this challenge like it - you are original. (ummmm you did give the blocks back to the kids, right?)
