Greetings from the Critique Club
By Inspzil
Composition - Great angle for this challenge. I think this is a great subject and the little spec of moon looks nice. The sky is so blue...too blue. The colors of this photo look very odd. As much as I like the angle and the subject, I dislike the colors.
Technical - This photo is really soft. It needs to be focused badly. The exposure needs to be just a little longer to give everything the light it needs. The focus is really a killer to this picture though. It's hard to see past when looking at it. The framing is really good though. The processing is too much tho. The sky is blue to an unbelievable degree. The green seems to be lacking and the lack of clarity on the leaves makes it seem even moreso. There appears to be a little red on the bottom of the tree in the leaves. This also seems odd. My feeling is that it is generally overprocessed.
Overall - This picture could've been really exceptional with a couple of minor changes. THe focus is the biggest one. The processing is the other. The choice of subject was awesome and the addition of the moon is a nice touch but it isn't enough to overcome the lack of focus though. Hope this could be of some help to you. - Inspzil |

| Nice photo! Challenge well met. The inclusion of the moon is a nice touch. Beautiful blue skys (just like you asked for!). Focus seems pretty good, but it seems a tad (really just a tad) off. Color - pretty, but unless I'm grossly mistaken, the red value seems a tad high, the trunk is more red than brown, as do the dead palm leaves. Still, overall a very nice image. 8 Swash |

| Lovely! I, too, tried to incorporate the moon into my picture, but no luck. Your sky is an amazing color! |

| Anniiiiiiida.... i love the vivid colours in this photo, but after seeing a bunch of others so far in voting on this challenge, the low resolution of the camera does stand out, making the photo seem soft. I also don't think it focussed on the top of the palm tree. The very closest part of the tree is sharper. It's so bold and vivid though, I like it :). |

| Nice angle on the tree. The sky seems a bit oversaturated and the tree seems a bit underfocused. |
