the most difficult dilemma of the dayby PhileineComment 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!

who is afraid of yellow bricks?by PhileineComment by Phileine: 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. |

who is afraid of yellow bricks?by PhileineComment by redmoon: 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. |

who is afraid of yellow bricks?by PhileineComment 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?) |
