I loved this photo, John! I didn't realize this one was yours. I think its perfect for this challenge. Sorry it didn't score better, but I really like it!
Hi, as requested, here is an indepth critique of your submission.
First Impression - the most important one: Interesting light pal, but overall lack of composition loses me quickly.
Composition: My eye is left to wander everywhere. Not a very strong compsotion in my opinion.
Subject: Not clear, because of the lack of composition.
Technical (Colour, focus, and light): Colour : very nice color and well exposed.
Focus: Looks pretty sharp.
Light: Well exposed and does add to the color.
To grow its vote?: Composition oges a long way in the process of making a photo. Study Rule of Thirds ... and crop to make your compsotion stronger.
Summary: Since you have left no Photographer's comments, I am left on my own to determine what you were trying to get here. I assume you were going for an abstract play on color. Technicals are good, but composition hurt you.
Creative take on the challenge. IMHO the shot seems to lack contrast between the lights and background. On my monitor, the background seems soft and reddish in appearance. Perhaps adjusting levels in P-shop may have helped with this? Just my opinion, nice shot nonetheless
These abstracty type shots are so hard to get perfect...
It's interesting, but it's abstracty, which just isn't as appealing as some of the really well done still lifes and such in this challenge. A good effort, and an interesting picture, but not a very 'wow' photo, which is even more essential than usual in this challenge.
nice blur motion effect. from the symetry, it seems like the camera moved, rather then "light painting." My only concern is the lack of a dominate one to be a subject to catch and hold the attention. As a result, my eye just seems to wander.;
