Hello from the Critique club
An interesting image that meets the challenge
What an admirable feat and enduring legacy of railway engineering! Your image has captured some lovely detail in this magnificent structure yet, it all somehow fails to convince in an obscure way. The landscape itself feels strangely barren with a patchy smudginess particularly around some of the clumps of trees as though there has been some post-processing applied in certain areas? Given the detail in the man-made structure against the natural though unconvincing background it somehow feels as though it has been transposed onto the scene, I’m not saying that is the case but that is the effect. Also, magnificent a structure as it is, it just doesn’t feel an ideal choice of subject for the square crop, I’m sorry, but it all feels rather uncomfortable in a hard to define sort of way, it’s just not working for me.
Sorry you didn't get any comments during the challenge, I hope this makes up for it. Thanks for your submission Marac |
