I did leave the tree in the picture. I did not crop it because I liked the crushing efect it gave to the picture. To me it does have the feel of the end. The sky is falling..............and all.
For most i guess it was a distraction that they couldnt get by, for me it was the draw of the pic.
I would have bumped this up a couple of points without the boulder? in the upper left corner. I like the color of the sky and grass and the simpleness of the kite flyer. "7"
Not quite enough clarity of your subject, and the trunk is destracting because it is too much of an undifined dark mass. Otherwise a really great idea, and lovely sky.
I'm sure you have received comments about this --- but I would have cropped to a panoramic aspect ratio to get red of the tree in the top left. Would have made for a top notch shot.
The rock in the upper left tends steal the scene. But after looking at this for awhile I got the meaning. Kind of looks like the end is near for the kite flyer, that the rock is falling out of the sky to end it all. Is that what you were after?
cool photo, with the guy and his kite, the horizon is perfect, nice clouds, ima just wondering what is the big black thing in the corner? lol... itd be a high 9 without the black... eh, planet?
I struggle with the framing in the upper left corner and find it extremely distracting and the strong point of the image. Other than that distraction, I do like the composition and title. Good Luck.
I like it, but I wish the subject were just a tad bit sharper. Closer to the subject, maybe? Pleasing capture of the white clouds against the cyan of the sky.
I think this could have been an amazing shot if it weren't for the tree(?) in the foreground. I'm still going to mark it high, but I recommend going out there and shooting it again someday without the tree. Just a boy and his kite. Ahh..talk about a feel of nostalgia.
WHAT is that thing in the upper left corner? It ruined the shot. If it was someone who got in your way, thank them very much. Cropping it out might have helped tremendously. Of course if it was intentional, I apologize - but aaarrrgggghh.
