CRITIQUE CLUB COMMENT
The orange foreground against the dark or black background makes a very nice contrast. Unfortunately, the tree in the distance seems out of place. The composition of the fence and tree in the photo work for me but the actual negative effect the tree has (i.e. looks like a film in negative) bothers me. The tree line on the horizon (also appearing negative) also seems completely out of place to me and the white halo effect around the tree line is tremendously distracting. Nice use of dodge and burn on the clouds...really makes them dramatic and helps the photo compensate a little for the distracting elements mentioned above. Overall I think this is a photo with a lot of promise that just fell short of being a real contender. Keep practicing with HDR and looking for what works best. I think the photo demonstrates you have a good eye for photography and will turn out outsanding work. |

| This appears to be a nicely composed image but unfortunately the post processing detracts from it. |

| I think a a tighter crop of the sky would strengthen the image and bring the viewers eye directly to the tree. Nice shot. |

| I think the picture is a good image, but I really don't think the treatment works here. The large area of desaturated, leaden sky, combined with a very bright oversharpened yet slightly blurred front, just don't do it for me. ~3 |

| Rarely do I like this kind of thing - this is one of the times I do. The bright color is jarring, but because it's just one color it works. Very moody sky. I think of dry storms on the great plains; it looks like rain is needed but it just won't fall. |
