Hey there from the Critique Club
Camera Work/Technical: Great focus, especially considering that this was a self-portrait AND was done with a 2.5 second shutter. Everything came out very crisp. The depth of field works very well for this image.
Lighting: Excellent lighting that produces a very lonely mood. I got an old barn and hard work feeling even before reading the comments. You did a nice job using light to direct the viewer into the frame and over to your subject.
Composition/Content: Great composition and very strong leading lines that also work to keep the eye moving around to the important elements. I think your capture would have been stronger with a more timeless feel if you had left the sunglasses off.
My Opinion: I guess that the voters subtracted points for there being two objects in the room, you and the stool. In my opinion, you met the challenge well, and did so with an image that is much higher quality than 5.58.

I like the image, but the view through the window competes for the viewer's attention with the subject. IMO it is too busy and distracting. The lighting and composition are nice and well suited to the challenge. The sunglasses and shadow on the wall add to the impact of this photo. |

Nice one. Love the sunglasses. The shadow on the wall along with the intricate squares of the roof line outside the window adds alot. Good job. 8 |

the widows seem to draw my eye and i was thinking of how to reduce the light level there, Perhaps moving further away with a different angle would have made it stronger 5 |
