Greetings from the Critique Club

I don't have a lot of experience with this genre of music and am not familiar with its artists. And as an outsider, this photo doesn't mean much to me. There are some good points: the square format is perfect, suggesting the square containers that music comes in, and the CD's at the bottom suggest wheels, which I guess has something to do with AC/DC since there is a truck on the poster. And the technical aspects (focus, lighting, color, etc.) are fine except for the blotch where you cloned out the glare and some minor jpeg artifacts that could have probably been avoided by using a higher quality (DPC allows up to 150K files).

Overall, not a bad photo. Just a rather static and not very interesting one.

I think it is a nice photo in that most of the items are well lit and those with the greatest impact have the best focus. Seems a bit more eBay ad-ish though, as the presentation is very straightforward and there isn't much drama to the image, rather a small catalogue of musical groups. Perhaps if the composition had been altered in some way to give the image a bit more depth. I gave it a 4

Back in Black by AC/DC was awesome in the 80s. Though it wasn't available as a CD when I first bought it.
