Tom, this is certainly not your best shot. Couldn't you do something with your computer, etc, sort of a travelling businessman thing? Crop the greenhouse, lose more of the grey sky, would have been a little more effective. You might want to start going for your challenge shot a little earlier in the week (as opposed to Sunday evening around 8 PM.) 7 Swash
Concept is valid; meets the challenge; image is quite boring and uncaptivating. Could use better sky, perhaps a customer or two; perhaps centering in on the menu. 4 sjgleah
I'm sorry I can't be a little more positive, but I can't say that I like the composition. In many respects it's a sharp, clear image, but it lacks character and looks rushed…
line of tree is too close to line of window and line of umbrella - too much going on in photo to see any focal point for composition; starbucks might like it though...
Nothing particularly interesting in the subject matter, other than the standard jab at the Starbucks' stereotypical mentality. Technically, the photo seems crooked (slightly tilted to the left) and under-exposed, perhaps due to time of day. More planning could've helped this.
