Critique Club Review
Overall this is a pretty good picture. Color is good, exposure very good, compression was a bit overdone. The artifacts around the flags tend to throw the eye off a bit. Good idea with the flags to show that the breeze is blowing the clouds into the picture. I think that a slightly different angle could help some. As it is, the left side of the picture seems to be a bit left out of the game. You did a very good job of keeping details in the clouds and the depth of blue to the sky. The only other thing that comes to mind is, that the eye keeps wanting to see where those clouds go. Over all a nice job. I think the picture is technically superior to the score you received. I would have rated it in the low to mid sixes. However, it lacks a bit as far as telling a story. (Carol Kings old song, "Every picture tells a story don't it?" keeps running through my head.) The next step is to tell a story with the picture. We can tell from this picture that it was sunny and breezy, but it is more of a deduction to get to warm. day, than a telling of the information. As to what you might put in the picture, ah there is the rub. It needs to come from the photographer, not the viewer. You've got a good eye and you are headed in the right direction. |

| Great idea. Wished i'd thought of it. Picture is a little noisey - probably due to jpg artifacts. This will likely turn off some folks. Make sure you use up to the limit on file size (150 kb). This is less than 50 kb. What would have been a 8 or 9, now is a 6. |

| Good job capturing the wind. Perhaps a bit too much open sky on the left but very good anyway. |

| great shot of weather! I would have liked it if the flag lines were going directly over head to bring attention to the top of the photo, and not just to the right corner. |

| Could have done with most of the 'empty' space on the left cropping off but otherwise a great shot. Very colourful and an imaginitive idea to add interest to a sky shot. |

| I was trying to think of a way to depict wind and couldn't think of anything decent. But you have, and you've done it very well too, good shot. |

| Great idea for the shot. You live near a second-hand car lot, perhaps? I like this a lot - a lovely photo which meets the challenge well, and a touch of originality too. well done. 9. |
