Greetings from the Critique Club...
Hi Artan...
I think this is a very peaceful image. I read through your comments and it seems that the collective 'voter' thinks you didn't really meet the challenge, which is unfortunate. There are several comments about the size of the 'people' and the people not being the main focus of your image. I disagree with both. The people are the subject of this photo, and no matter how large or small they are in the image, the photo simply wouldn't exist without them. In the context of a challenge, the average voter seems to have preconceived notions about what they want to see, which is normal. Everyone likes to talk about getting outside the 'box', but when we do so, our scores normally suffer for it. Creative thinking an a challenge mode is a good thing, but you have to do it while beating the voter over the head with the topic, so it isn't so easy in most cases. I wouldn't chage much about this particular photo. Nice work :)

| This is a good shot - not spectacular, but pretty good. I know there are people in the shot, but I like the ones with faces more. This actually might have done well in the Minimalism challenge. |

| Nice action shot, but I only see a couple of small silhouettes for people. It would be great if you could have zoomed in enought to get a look at one of their faces. |

Very nice image. Can't help thinking of the current challenge (minimalism) - something like this would do good there, too.
For this one, I wish the people in the photo were slightly bigger, though. |

| If the challenge topic was "open spaces" or something similar I'd give this high marks. As it is the people-like things are little more than black specks. |

| I like the photo, but it doesn't make me think 'people' well done though |
