*Greetings from the Critique Club*
Initial impressions - there appeared on my computer to be a rather bold blue line right above the tree line, and something about the trees feels a bit unnatural. These both distracted a bit for me.
Compositionally, I like what you were going for. Your fisherman is front and center, and I like the prominence of the subject and fishing pole. Technically, your subject is nice and sharp, and I like the colors. However the lighting feels just a bit flat and that odd line right at the tree line made me think that something was a bit off. (Topaz adjustments??) I'm also wondering if having the whole rod, rather than it having the tip cut-off might have made for a slightly stronger composition - or maybe the lens just wasn't quite wide enough to capture it all?
Overall I liked the image, and you were a 6 from me in the challenge. I thought it was a nice portrait, but that odd bit around the trees kept it from scoring higher from me. |
