Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi Bigsmiles...

I think this image makes as good a postcard as any... It highlights an element of the community that would attract visitors. I don't think I can suggest any compositional improvements to the photograph....

As for the exposure, I think it may be just a tad under exposed. The color/tonal range looks just a tiny bit flat to me.

The text appears to be a little cramped also. In a postcard shot, it would be important to compose it in such a way that you leave room for any text that you want to add to the image.

Good work :)

Good post card subject. Composition is good. Colors would need to be more dramatic to draw attention on the post card rack.

Isn't that George VI? That's a very large coin - what's the story?

Now this is a typical postcard shot, you're on the right track here! You were lucky getting that crispy blue sky with amazing cloud formations in the background to increase the quality of you pic! I particularly like the perspective you chose for this.

Oh Canada!

Great job, so a great grade of 10 from one Canadian to another. Good luck in the challenge. That's my 2 cents worth! Morgan

That's a good photo, but what is it really? It doesn't look like any nickel I've ever seen. Is it just a sign for a park? I can't read Latin.

Hmmm, I traveled thru Sudbury by Motorcycle last Fall, but somehow missed the nickel!

I would have centered the text on the bottom and switched the lines around in position as well as size.

i love this giant nickel, it's such an unusual artifact.. i might have placed the text in less squeezed spot.
