critique club comment ....
I think you have a quite strong image, with the dark deep background and engergy filled subject. I think you chose a good background color. The cropping on this image is VERY tight, and much too tight actually on the bottom and perhaps on the right. The bottom white line is 1 pixel away from the bottom of the statue... which creates an akward line, and problem in the photo. It stops the eye at an unattractive, or uninteresting spot, it also leads the eye to the edge of the photo and leaves it there stranded. As you said, there is some white blasting in the image, and I agree. The could be softenend with a softer light sorce, or less direct light. Perhaps if you bounced the light off the wall before letting it hit the statue. i think the horiztonal (left right) angle is fine, and reasonably interesting, but perhaps you could play with the verticle. Try taking the picture from a lower or higher vantage point.
hope this helped. |

Very nice exposure and lighting, great job! - This would have fit well in the NG challenge also....quite a archaic look to it. |

I do like this. I had to photograph something like this many years ago.for an auctioneer. One point. As the background is black I would have just put the smallest (and I do mean smallest) amount of light to the left, rear. That would just give the very slightest amount of shape to parts which merge into the background and give just the smallest amount of detail into the figure. |

Nicely done as a photograph. The horse as beast of burden doesn't go to well with the theme, though. |

Nicely crafted piece. I like that you've given more room on the left and top. Just a bit bland, though. 6 |
