I like the concept you were after, but this is way overprocessed. |

OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy):
Positives: Great communication of strong geometry and an unusual POV. I also like the lighting on the inside of the pylon, for me that makes the image. I also appreciate the boldness of this image - you clearly have had a vision for this image and have committed to it.
Critical stuff: You've probably guessed by my absence of superlatives above that I'm not a fan of this image. I should explain why. The haloing around the pylon and the blown highlights in the clouds - I think such things are quite difficult for an image to accommodate successfully here. I feel the straight lines of the pylon should remain crisp but the haloing effect pulls these elements out of the image and the overall image loses coherence as a result. Then there is the colour choice - I can respect it as a choice but I don't think it works too well.
Overall: A picture with potential but one that, in my view, is not well served by your post-processing choices. |
