Greetings From the Critique Club!!!

Initial Impact: I like it....

Color..... umm I guess this catagory is a bit poinless in this photo.

Focus: I like it nice and crisp lines everywhere. The road, the church, the tress all in perfect focus.. This alone wins a few points in my book.

Contrast: I see that most think this could have used a bit more contrast. I agree with them to an extent. I like the monotone and gey feel of this image. But it does feel a little flat. I think a little burning would make everyone hapy. Maybe burn the sky a little to bring out the clouds a bit more. And just a light pass with the burn tool over the trees to give this more depth using dark to ligh with a midline.

Composition: I like it.. Rule of thids was used. It has a nice balance and natural feel. I even like the border.

Overall I voted this image pretty high. I gave it a 7 during the challenge. I think with a little use of the burn tool this could have easily received an even higher score. Wonderfull photo.. I look foerward to seeing what you come up with next..

I would hope for a little more contrast in the trees, but I realize you can't always get that with a white church and snow. Great picture though.

Really, really nice. Maybe just a bit more contrast but it works this way..

White point seems just a hair too bright (see church steeple and door seem to lose detail). I think you could have kept just the smallest amount of detail in your lightest details to pickup another point from what I'm seeing. 6
