Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.

First Impression - the most important one:
I think this shot has a solid impact on the viewer. The picture is lucky not to have been disqualified as mentioned by one of the commentors there is no much extra from the grafiti.

Composition:
What you have here works, but that is all.

Subject:
Meets the challenge, but I think you need some more challenges to stratch your thinking and grow you natural talent.

Technical (Colour and light):
I love that this is natural light, and the sharpness of the picture.

To grow its vote?:
Needs more .. but this is your first entry ... and you did this and met the challenge ...

Summary:
Go with your imagination and make it work .. you are going to be so good on this site ...

If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.

Cheers

Kari

I don't feel you've brought much extra to existing artwork here.

Ah, shame on the city authorities of putting a meter there, it is very out of place. Like the rest of the shot, looks cool, the grafitti.

I have learned that the long format doesn't work well on this site. This doesn't do much for me.

What is this? You definately got great talent in you, but we surely expect a better photograph, from the talented photographer, you are!

Why don't you pay more attention to composition?? This pic is very very boring, but surely exposes,the great talent u have in you.

Best of luck and start hunting better subjects!

Væri hægt að útfæra þetta betur, með smá lífi, eins og að maður myndi ganga þarna frammhjá eða eitthvað í þeim dúr

I like this pic, but I think the shadow from the parking meter is a distraction. Just my humble opinion...

Very good graffiti artist, and also a good photo as well.....

oh, that parking meter really hurts. Otherwise, nice take on the challenge, although it may border on "literal representation of artwork"
