Greetings from the Critique Club,

Hi Claire,

I've spent some time looking at your shot trying to work out what I can comment on it. For soem reason this isn't easy. The shot is technically sound - nothing wrong there. Even the general composition is okay - admitabely a little full of clutter, but given the challenge that is to be expected.

The issue I think is to do with what the lines of the steel convey in terms of emotion and leading the eye. Somehow these factors just don't 'work' here. I have found the following article very useful in starting to understand this aspect of photography. Hope it helps you too.

I hope my comments help and Good Luck in future Challenges!

Cheers
Paul
