Waiting for youby CuttoothComment by salmiakki: Greetings from the Critique Club
I have just read the comments on this image, which are actually quite interesting. Of them all, I have to agree with  Zeuszen.
Of course, the subject is a little dark for DPC, and because it requires the viewer to consider it for more than 5 seconds, I suspect you got some low votes from the speed voters, which is a pity, as it certainly an image that tells a story.
I would personally never tell you that you should have cropped out the foreground. However, what I will say is that if you are concerned about your score, then cropping the foreground may have helped you. I have noticed recently that DPC voters don't particularly like shallow depth of field in the foreground. I happen to like it as is, it adds to the overall mood.
I could see this image used as a dust jacket for a murder mystery.
As far as the score goes, I think you knew going in that this may not score so well. The score certainly does not reflect on the quality of the image.

Waiting for youby CuttoothComment by zeuszen: I was reading the comments on the image. The subject, of course, is not the person holding the pipe. It's fear. And no, you didn't fail to communicate this via the image. Some viewers failed to consider the obvious. |

Afternoon Callby CuttoothComment by kivgaen: too busy. I like the angels of the lines of the road and the fire truck, but I am distracted by the background. The big shadow of the hydro pole, those lines on the street, the pink thing, whatever that is, all those little bits in the dirt, the spotty shadow of the tree -- it's all just too much for me. |
