Critique Club Review:
A simple but elegant response to the challenge.
Color, saturation, hue, lighting, exposure, brightness, and contrast are all great.
Focus is good, and I particularly like the way you have used depth of field to keep the eye from being drawn away from the subject and off the top of the frame. Yet at the same time there is enough detail there, so the viewer is not left wishing for more.
A very nice touch was the crumbled chalk being added to the trails to give the picture a little extra texture.
Excellent job and a well deserved score.

This is very nice. Good composition and I like how you lit it to produce the shadows at the end of the chalk. Bumping up. :-)

The shadows are perhaps just a little too strong.
