Greetings from the Critique Club!
First Impression: YAY!!! I loved this in voting! Now I get to look at it again and write MORE about it! :) I remember looking at this before during voting, and thinking about how beautiful that top section with the reflection is to look at. I don't even know what the reflections are of... buildings? headstones? It just didn't seem to matter. It left me wondering a bit, but I like that in a photo. The colors are soft and nicely contrast each other, the shapes are interesting to look through, and the ripples in the water are just perfect for an abstract look.
After reading your photographer comments: I don't know what some of those things are, like the sunshine filter, so I'm not sure how they affected the image. Hard to follow the "top" and "bottom" comments too since that all happened before you flipped the shot. Makes my head spin!
After reading the voters comments: I think I like Melethia's suggestion of cropping just a little bit more, but leaving the bricks to anchor the shot. I remember commenting on the coloring of the ground, and it seems as though you did some adjustments to them. Perhaps not adjusting the cyan values quite as much, and the little bit of extra cropping, it would balance out that part of the image?
Overall, I still love this shot, and I'm glad I got another chance to come back and see it again. I hope that you found something in this critique helpful. Please feel free to PM me if you have any questions! |
