COMPOSITION
Framing the shot with the "frame" really adds to the composition of this shot I think. It draws the viewer's attention and focuses it on the subject of the picture. It feels a little off to me, maybe if the camera perspective was a little more to the left. Inside the frame, the rolling hill makes for some nice motion.
TECHNIQUE
The focus seems a little grainy, but I think that may add to the shot (more on this later). The grays, which would normally make for a drab shot, really add to the effect of this shot, as well, I think. I'm thinking I see some noise in the sky area, I don't know what your shutter speed, etc was, so I can't suggest anything in that area, but if you haven't ever tried NEATIMAGE or other noise reduction filters, they can really clean it up.
OVERALL EFFECT
A bit more fog, and your subject would be hidden completely! When I saw this shot, I immediately thought of the book "Wuthering Heights." It just has that dismal, gloomy, somber, mysterious aire about it. Nice work. |

| Neat shot, it looks like a painting. Might have worked a bit better if Waldo wasn't so centered. |

| Nice window and way of bordering the hoto. Needs to be sharper focused. Don't feel this meets the challenge of hiding Waldo, but that's just my opinion. |

| Nice photo, it looks kinda gloomy there, is that fog out the back of the girl? Good idea, although the girl is not really hiding here. |

| I like the feeling of this picture, even though the person isn't exactly hidden. I think the white border detracts though. |

| Wow. I really like the image. Nice range of dark colors. The green in the background helps a lot to set the image right. Good job. |

| Great pic, but Waldo's too obvious to warrant the score this deserves. |

| Nice picture - it would have fit the challenge a bit better if the person were more hidden but aside from the challenge it is a beautiful pic |

| It definitely tells me something. Great atmosphere you created in the picture. Contrast is a bit too soft or birght? But I think it is really nice. |
