*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
An interesting image that meets the challenge.
I'm intrigued by what you have done here. I assume the shot has been taken at night, and what a dark night it seems but the lighting is what is bugging me, there is no way I can conceive that you have illuminated this like this yourself, so I assume the lighting is as provided by the Arboretum themselves?
I have to agree with your commenter, given the softness throughout I think this probably camera shake. If you haven't used a remote control you could use the camera's self timer to overcome this problem.
Apologies for the delayed critique, as they say, better late than never, Sid |
