A telescope looking at the sky at night certainly fits something that you anyone could see that means darkness to you. Ther perspective of the scope is good.

Most viewers would probably relate to your view better if the scope were pictured at night while in the act of studying the heavens, perhaps with a perseon peering through the eyepiece at some distant object.

Technically the image is OK. Composing a telescope with a wooded cene in the background may be hard for some viewers to relate to. The woods have noise that should be removed with some type of noise reduction and the trees in the upper left are overexposed.

The bright background overpowers the foreground, and the tree intersects your main focus, which is very annoying to the eyes (especially because the tree itself is not in focus).

A fellow stargazer! That's what I do when it gets dark!

Good capture on the 'scope, but the sharp angle with the tree in the background is distracting me.If the tree hadn't have been there, then the composition would have been better, as it would have been against a slightly darker background. An average photo with no emotional impact, so 4.
