Greetings Terry from the Critique Clubjuggle
By Inspzil
Composition - Would be a nice pic without that pesky foot in the bottom corner. Oh wait, that's waldo.... I see now. I thought it was for the other challenge at first. It would be a good perspective shot though methinks. The monument is great. I like the little snow frosting on top of it. The background is very good too. The sky is really.. blah looking unfortunately. This would've been a better photo for springtime, but that would be a little after the challenge deadline. I wish there were some more color.
Technical - For a snow picture, very well exposed. The monument is very clear and readable. Good DOF and the framing is pretty good. It wouldn't have hurt it to be a little further back. Processing could've added a little color to this scene, but I think spring would add even more. I think a little more contrast would have helped but it's a touchy thing to get right with snow anywhere. marble is pretty white, but not like new snow.
Overall - Not a badly taken picture really, but the conditions just weren't quite right for it. In a few months I bet it would've been much better. It does meet the challenge pretty well and is well conceived in that right. It might take a few tweakings on the levels or greyscaling it to make it come out better. Good Luck on coming challenges and have some :pie - Bob |

Aha you had the same idea as me! This is a very nice capture and just enough shadow at the bottom to hide Waldo's foot. Good job! |

Nice work - very well hidden (the foot helps give it away thankfully). You shot is also quite nice, although I think it's cropped a few mm too close at the top. No other complaints though - it's quite a good effort. |

I like all of the snow on the stairs. I think that brought a lot of intrest to your picure. nice Work |

This photo is well done in many ways. The composition is dynamic. The exposure is so well done that you can read the inscription on the white tomb without blowing out your high lights in other places. The shadow and the foot are what makes this photograph in this particular challenge. I would like to see it without them just as a well done photograph. |

Very serene, and the foreground shadow, with the impending toe, is powerful. The snow adds to the gravity of the scene. |

Took me a while. It's hard to read the engraving on the monument. |
