Critique Club Review:
Technical: focus and depth of field are good. Nice use of a shallow depth of field to reduce background distractions. Color, saturation and hue are OK. Lighting is a bit off, the bright highlight on the tree steals the show from the ghost somewhat.
Reaction: The straw at lower left distracts some, along witht the very bright highlight on the tree. The image would have worked better had the ghost been highlighted. The ghost is a bit centered, but not a fatal problem. Some people might have voted you down a bit, seeing eyes as part of a face. I like the backround colors and pattern. I think the big problem is I like it too much. The background is great, but it makes the ghost look a little weak in comparison. It's just more or less a ghost hanging in a tree in front of a cool background. If the ghost were better lit, and perhaps a bit larger in the frame, it might work better.

Very good color to match the Halloween theme - nice light on the branch. I think maybe if the ghost weren't quite so clost to center it would be a bit more effective. Still, an interesting entry! |
