Greetings from the Critique Club and welcome to DPC!
First impression: I have hard time figuring out what this is without reading your notes. The photo does not grab my attention for very long, I find the background bokeh more interesting than the main subject.
Technicals: Lighter background grabs my attention, I wish there was more light on the subject so that a viewer can appreciate all the dents and textures of the metal and the wood. While the focus is good, your composition is too central for me and I feel that a tighter crop would have put more focus on the subject and made the photo more interesting.
Final thoughts: For someone not familiar with the culture, it is hard to figure out what this photo is about, the lighter background took over your photo. Focusing on a specific element -- contrasted textures, a drop of water, etc. would have provided more reference points for the viewer.
Please feel free to PM me with any questions.
Cheers,
Anna |
