FIRST IMPRESSION: Good idea for the challenge, but the shot is way too dark in my opinion.

CHALLENGE: Meets the challenge.

COMPOSITION: There is a lot of wasted space in this shot in my opinion. This shot would have been better if you could have moved in or zoomed closer to your subject.

TECHNICAL: This shot is so dark that most of the detail is lost. A 1/2000 sec exposure is far too short at F/8 for this light.

CONCLUSION: An interesting theme. More experimentation with exposure times and aperture and excluding extraneous items may help strengthen your photography.

Thanks for sharing and good luck in future challenges!

good composition from what I can see, but far too dark to get the real details of the shot.

Photo is a dark overall, I maybe wouldn't have gone black and white on this. Maybe bump up the gamma. I like your silhoutte and composition. This pic definitely has potential.

I think it would have been a good entry. Two negatiives are the darkness and the leveling.

Nice subject however seems too dark. Iit looks like the sky was really nice that day, so maybe more sky and lass black foreground.
