There are two main thoughts that lead me to your photograph, the first is the blue Arches and the second is the moving figure at the end of the
photograph.
Your DOF from front to rear is excellent and in focus. You've even got the hole in the 9th square in focus as is the bright object between the 2nd and 3rd Arch. The lighting coming through the Arches is just enough to create shadows which add something mystical to your photograph.
Now, the girl in the background. Was she put there on purpose, or did she just happen to walk by at the wrong moment? Doesn't matter, for me she neither adds or takes away from the photo. I would prefer not to have her there, but would prefer to have the darkness at the "end of the tunnel".
You have excellent composition, colour is great and clarity is also there. The angle that you've taken the shot from is an excellent choice. The eyes do not wander around, but are led directly from the front arch all the way to the back (except for that little white spot)to the female figure.
Hmmmmmm.... After careful consideration... from a 7 to an 8. :-) Great shot but IMO the blue duotone is a bit too strong with this type of architecture. A softer, more subtle blue would've given it more impact. The angle is great and the fact that the person isn't well defined got me looking closer... it caught my attention!
Very dramatic with strong lines and colour. I like the soft ghostlike subject--I wonder how this looked in natural colours of black and white---well done
nice lighting and shadow. a little bit too much on the cool side of the colors for me, but it makes it feel a bit more somber, like at a mausoleum or something
One of my favourites this week. Great composition. Perfect focus and the blue tone is perfect.. Great lines and very interesting. Overall a very interesting shot that gets high score from me. Well done and good luck.
The ghostly figure at the end of the line of arches is really good. I really like all aspects - composition, execution, and meeting the challenge - and it has WOW.
The International Commitee for the Preservation of Yellows and Reds denounces with vigor this act of deliberate discrimination. Good shot otherwise. I like the monopod creature in the back.
excellent shot.. i love the blue tone and the lines lead me right to your subject.. the lines seem to overpower the subject a little, but a great shot, none-the-less... - setzler
A sure winner. The ONLY thing that throws me off is that it looks like a person down at the far end, and I wish that tiny distraction wasn't there. But that's just me! An amazing shot for sure.
