Your photo reminds me of some old french painting. I enjoyed it a lot.

I voted this a 3 becuase there really is no composition, the horizon isn't level, and just overal confusion.

This is a bit confusing with no focal point that I can identify. The sharpness is a little off too.

the perspective on this makes me a bit dizzy...maybe having focused on a smaller group of tables would have been better

Sorry but there is just too much going on here, I have no point of focus - good luck

A nice exposure and focus. A very pleasant scene. I find it seems kind of busy though as is, and my eye is not finding a strong focal point. I'm thinking that perhaps adding a major element to this scene would make a great photo, like maybe one person sitting at a table or something.

nice shadows from the trees, I like the high contrast that creates, the spots of light and dark. I wonder if a better composition could have been found that cut out the bacckground, since I think the most interesting aspect of the shot is the chairs and tables, and how their shapes mimic the shape of the light.

too grainy, too busy

Capturing light and shadow is not as easy as it sounds. Here we see this scene at chair level. It's busy and there is not one subject of interest.

Nice idea, but missing DOF.

horizon seems tilted
there is a great deal of jpg artifact in the chair backs
