Man...this is really good and nice shot and it should deserve more. I can't imagine people who voted 1, 2, & 3...they should use their brains. |

I don't understand why anyone voted this under a 6. I would have personally given it an 8. I love it. |

Critique Club Review:
Color Saturation and Hue: Colors fit well in this image, skin tones are natural.
Brightness and Contrast: Brightness is appropriate for this image. Contrast is very good, highlights are not blown out. Dark areas are nice and inky.
Focus and depth of field: Focus is nice and sharp. Depth of field captures all the subject elements well. Perhaps if the red cloth had been allowed to go soft, it might have worked even a little better.
I like this image a lot. I like the smoke, and at the same time the smoke bothers me. I love the curves and the lighting of the smoke. Very nice texture. But at the same time, the smoke cuts the image in half, almost making two images out of one.
If there is no "rule" on the placement of the incense, I think someplace other than at the bottom of the picture, perhaps where the flame is. So that the image is no longer cut in half.
As is the photo tells a very strong story. Congratulations on a well deserved top 20 finish. |

I thought your pic was great (although I had some nits to pick :P) and I gave you an 8, but Your score was hit hard by those '1's. I can't imagine why someone would think to give this a 1, though I wouldn't be surprised if it was a manifestation of some form of xenophobia or ethnocentrism. Congrats on the top 20 ! |

Really like this ΓΆ€“ and believe it to be one the best in the challenge, perfectly communicating the virtue to the viewer! I like how you obscured with darkness some of the items in the picture as well as the praying woman. Good luck! |
