Critique Club critique:
Composition/Content: Very nice framing of the figurine and nice choice of subject. Nice use of white against black for a simple but striking image.
Lighting: The flash accentuates the contrast and maybe too much. Flash sometimes "flattens" out an image. I think reflected light or side light would have given this figure more depth and because of that more life. I would have still made it high contrast just different angle on the light.
Background: The upper corners are slightly distracting because they are the only things in the background that aren't black.
Camera Work/Technical: Excellent camera angle.
Digital Processing: I've seen some of my images have the gradients like the upper corners here, and they were caused by over processing the color levels and/or saturation. I don't know if that's what caused your gradients or not.
My Opinion: I like the image and think it is well done. I don't think upper corners were the reason for an average score. The image is striking but could use more depth with different lighting to make it more three dimensional.

| Cool shot (of someone else's art, I have a slight problem with that). The walls/beams/columns on either side seem sort of distracting. Very strong contrast (I like that!) 6 Swash |

| Yargh, I am sad that you offered free publicity for this subtly racist song! I know that now it's part of our popular culture, but it's offensive to Egyptians... who walk just like everyone else. Your photo is interesting in it's own right, but I wish you had chosen "Walk This Way" or something else as your song. |

Just too funny, the statue sure looks like it is doing the dance. I wondered about the diagonal lines at the corners. They don't hinder much but don't help either. I like the contrast of the white with the pitch black background. 6.
Take my comments for what they are worth for I am just a novice with a new camera. Dodo |
