KINDERGARDEN VOLCANIK CHEMSTRY

Critique Club Review:

I'm not sure what the stream of water is supposed to represent. To the left of the cone, it looks like there is a spot or drop of water on the lens.

Color and saturation are good. The foam at the top of the volcano is just about burned out and featureless. Could just be the foam is.

Depth of field is a little shallow here. Things are getting soft towards the base of the cone.

To me it appears that you are a little too close to the cone with the camera. Also a little late with the picture. It looks like the eruption is about over.

This is a creative take on the challenge. I'd like to see this picture again with a little wider angle, more depth of field, the eruption in mid flow for a little more drama and without the stream of liquid frozen in time, it is a little distracting.

Nice use of color, but a bit of a stretch for the challenge

I like the 'volcano' nice colours. Just the stream of liquad in front throws me. I understand what it is and what its for, just looks like you missed the target.

That fits the bill. But it needs better focus and composition.

Not in focus enough for me.

could be a very good shot, but it is overexposed and not sharp

lack of focus distracts sadly the theme is great though

Pretty shot. It would have been even better if you cropped at the top step, I think?

I like the idea of this photo, but it seems a little out of focus. Also this would look a lot better if the main subjects were not centered in the frame. Look at the rule of thirds.
