Critique Club Assignment:

Initial: This reminds me of my late grandparents. Their whole body language with each other... they are comfortable friends who have been thru it all together. Congrats to them!

Technical: Their natural closeness is depicted well here, however their straight on stance in the composition and the flat lighting leaves a snap shot feel to it. Not that it makes it terrible, .. snapshots are valuable. But if you had been able to do something to kick it up a knotch - like help to arrange their positions to each other, use a more solid background, or leave more space between them and the background to give less dof or focus on the background - then I feel it may have scored higher.

Overall, I love their expressions, and in the end you were right to just catch it.

So..there's the two sides of it :0)

I love the happy expression on their face, and the naturalness of their pose. Nice capture.

Nice clear image. Good idea as well. I think that maybe a better background would have added more to the photo.

What a great shot! Wish the wall behind them wasn't so close to the color of her hair. (I also wish it were MY photo. NICE capture!)
