Greetings from the Critique Club
By Inspzil (a fellow Michigander)
Composition - The angle of this shot is the selling point IMO. You really make John Law look like a bigger badder individual. He looks like he needs to make a few less trips to the donut store though. Color portrayal is exceptional. Good use of a polarizer.
Technical - Really I think there is only one thing that I could suggest for this picture and that's a little fill flash to light this man's face just a little more. The exposure for the most part is really good but his face is just a little dark. If you have flash intensity control on the G2, I'd have put the flash at its lowest setting and taken the picture, to "fill the face" so to speak. But the angle, perspective, and framing are making this picture.
Overall - Good portrayal of at work. Tough job, hanging around at a birthday bash. I've been to Allegan before, a couple times on jobs. Not a terribly exciting place from what I've seen. Back to the pic - I think you've done a good job with this picture. The fill flash is kind of a minor thing, but one of those little tricks that might have added a couple tenths to your score as a result. This is really good work. Best of luck in the future - Bob |

| Great shot I love the perspective. Too bad the other horse is in the pic. Nice job. I like the "glow" of the guy's hat from the Sun, it really draws your eye up to it because of the contrast with the perfect sky. 8. |

| I like this one - the angle chosen is creative, and the picture is nicely held by the horse's head and the man's head. His hat glows a little, but I'm impressed that his face is as clear as it is under that. |

| So nice to see you got the horse to smile, since the officer isn't. Not bad. |

| This is a good shot. I'd like to see it with a bit of fill flash to bring out the man's face. |
