Greetings from the Critique Club!!!
At first glance the eye is captured by the bright of the red. I think it is a tad too much for the lower contrasted black and white. It would be more effective in either a color shot, or with a higher contrasting black and white with no red at all as the texture of the wood on wood is an interesting detail. I like the shadowing behind the shoes, but I'm wondering if it wouldn't have better served you to remove the log altogether and place them on a solid surface background so that they would JUMP out at you instead of becoming part of the branch on the ground. It is more eye pleasing to have negative space to the right of the shoes instead of them being placed so dead center. The idea is a good one and I think with some tweaking, you could really make this work. Keep at it - you have a good eye and imaginative creativity to really have some excellent shots in the future. All the best, Judy |

| I think that the red ( selective desaturation?? ) actually takes away from this one. Looking at the shadowing on this one, i think a straight B/W might have been quite a bit better. |
