 I really hope this is seen as a thirds composition. i positioned the eyes as close to center so they'd be on both third lines in both thirds positions, and tried to create a triangle type pattern w/ the eyes and the bottom of the mouth on the third line.

hopefully everyone will see it, if not, i really enjoyed it. not one of my best, but i like it nonetheless.

maybe will be in the 5.5 - 6 range :D we'll see

Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Nice, clean focusing and I like the idea of using this one as a black and white. Using a slight curves adjustment in your post-processing would have added some much needed contrast.

Lighting: The lighting is pretty nice in this capture. There is a bit of a hot-spot on the nose that loses some detail. A little bit less on the exposure would have helped it out.

Composition/Content: It is just a little too centered for a rule of thirds challenge. It is close, but I think a horizontal shot would have worked better, thus opening up that left side a bit.

My Opinion: Well, you pegged that score prediction, huh? I think that as it is, this one scored about where it should have. With some contrast adjustments and a little less centering, I think the score would have grown.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

HEE HEE - I love cows. I might adjust contrast just a smidge.

pretty centered...or damned close to it. Bessy is begging for landscape framing here.
