"Critique Club Comment"

COMPOSITION- Composition is pretty good. I like that you don't have the girl centered in the middle of the photo and more space in front of her. It gives the feeling of going somewhere. The angle you used also is very good. I think the photo would have been a little more powerful if you had her looking the way she is going and both hands on the rope instead of waving.

BACKGROUND- Background is a little busy with all the houses. More impact could have been had if you used a bigger aperature to blur them out more. Also what I think would have been neat would have been to use a slightly slower shutter speed and pan with her to get a motion effect.

CAMERA WORK- your exposure is great on this. My only thought is to slow the shutter to give more of a sense of motion.

DIGITAL PROCESSING- Your compression on this is great. No artifacts.

MY OPINION- I think this was a nice shot. Fits the challenge great.

Is she travelling on 'Rosebud' into or away from suburbia? Apart from being a comment to the theme the picture as such doesn't really have any extra qualities.

Great shot. Just about everything in focus. And what an expression on her face. She looks like a child at play. Makes me feel good. I love to see adults having childish fun. This is a great photo and deserves a score of 9. PTL

Now that's a cool way to get around. Nice capture, good composition. Well done.

Looks like a good way to travel. Your focus and framing are good. It's a shame the road is so grey and murky, otherwise a very good photo

Looks like fun, for me the crop is just a little too tight, I would like to see a bit more space above her head. Nice action shot.

Not that travel-y if you ask me
