Greetings from the Critique club
Ok... classic case of missed opportunity. This has so much potential in it and this rock has allot going for it. Dark mood and as the main theme in this image I would have composed - or cropped this slightly different. Not sure that the horizon in the middle helps this. Yes it was a dark and gloomy day but the processing lets it down a bit and I would have used a bit more contrast. I almost want to play with this image myself but this is your interpretation and the way you intended for viewers to judge it, yet it wont draw attention or interest as it stand here and you also are not putting enough emphasis on your main subject when you dont use all possible tools you have. A square crop is perfect for this but with horizon and other elements placed wrong you loose the plot.
On the scene when taking this I would have also dropped the ISO and upped the F stop for a longer exposure.. at least as long as you can get and judging from your notes you could maybe have gotten to almost a second. Trying to smooth out the water creating further contrast with this solid rock and smooth surface.
Enjoy experimenting and hope the notes help in future challenges. |
