Hey from the critique club... :)
Sup dude..
OK, im not gonna lecture on and on about how to score well on dpc, because apparently you already knwo how to do that ;)... (something most of us can't do). But ill try and focus on what i think could make this photo better, not from the dpc viewpoint, but from my personal view.
First off i think the editting on this is a little bit harsh. Either too muchincrease in contrast or a little crazy with the curves adjustment, I would tone it down a little bit.
The noise in the photo was also a little bit too strong for me, i would tone it down a little bit, im not sure if this was a desired afffect, but i do think that noise in this pic would look good, you just had a little too much.
Considering you were using a laptop with a bad screen a coomend you on your post processing. Although sometimes rush images are the worst images to enter...
Just keep in mind that even though the update button is addicting, its good to kick the habit... :)
hope i helped a little, if you have any comments or questions please feel free to PM me
-Dan
P.S. i really did like your elemental photo... :) |

I thought this would score a little higher. I really liked the processing, the guy walking, and the dirty old buildings. I'm pretty square so might have suggesting cropping LH side to leave the brick pillars framing each side. |

Frame the subject of your photograph using the window (as in from a building). You could almost argue here that she's framed by the door. Just. Any reason for placing her just right of centre? |

This is the kind of street photography which screams for a good black and white conversion. There are so many details, patterns and texures in this image which add to the composition. |

An all too-familiar sight I'm afraid, you've captured the feel of it pretty well. |

Not bad as a street photo but 2 things bother me. 1. You cut off his feet. 2. It could stand to be a great deal clearer and sharper. 5 from me. |

It certainly has seen better days.
I don't know - the colors or sharpening may be overdone. Or it may just be the lighting at the moment. Just seems a bit too contrasty. |

the main point of interest in this photo isn't window framed, for me it should be... there are windows there and a lot to work with.. |

This is a nice candid shot, and well processed too. |

This is very, very good. Framed by windows! So refreshing to see an image that's not a slave to tedious bloody literalism. And it's an interesting, ambitious image, too. Not content with thumbing your nose at the DNMC literalists, you say "screw you" to the composition police as well. How do I love the? Let me count the ways! (EBB) 9. |

Like it. Maybe worth cropping the left hand side to the edge of the brick pillar? |
