Greetings from the critique club :)
Well an image from Iceland! Cool! I don´t have a lot to say about this image so I´ll keep this short. First of all, I am not really surprised this shot didn´t do better cause I and probably heaps of other people are wondering how it ties in with the challenge as it appears to me that it´s taken out in the nature and nowhere near a street. It´s more what I would call a portrait.
The photo itself is pretty good, I actually like it except for the sky, I don´t mind blown highlights but in this photograph, I would have liked it much better had the sky been dark and gloomy to fit the feel of the shot much better. I do like the processing, maybe a tad too contrasty for my taste but nothing that is bothering me. I do like the b/w conversion and the toning of the image, nicely done.
Why only 513 pixles though? You have been here for more than 2 years and almost 200 challenges, surely you know that you will score better if you stay as close to the maximum allowed pixles as you can.
Anyway, nice shot, just don´t think it was in the right challenge, if it had been and also had been in a bigger rez, I think this would have easily gone over 6.
Kind regards from your own Iceland, Lárus. |

Pretty good lighting. It seems like the kind of shot that tends to score well on DPC, but lacks the punch of some of them. Perhaps a tighter crop? |

AFter about three or four viewings, I see a zipper on her jacket. Not a gawdy intrusion, mind you, just an amusing reminder that yesterday comes wrapped in today. 10 |

I really like the photo but nothing is saying 'Street' to me. |

Very nice portrait and I like the grain; it adds some mood to the image. But I have a problem to connect this image with a street photography contest. 6 from me and good luck. |

For my vote, I have to easily identify a shot as a street photo. From the blurry background it looks as if it DNMC |
