Critique Club Review:
To tell you the truth, the alternative entry would have worked better. Were there more "steam/smoke" coming off the character the picture would have worked better also. As is, the negative space is pretty good sized, and sort of just there.
Focus, lighting, color, saturation, and hue are well done.
You did a very good job keeping things sharp with the timed exposure, and yet at the same time, giving the impression of movement.
In some respects I feel that the challenge turning into a graphic arts contest, but nothing says that we can't have one of those once in a while. Perhaps that should have been made a little clearer to entrants.
Overall I really like this picture, the alternate picture felt even more Larson-ish. I do not remember this particular cartoon. But then there are many I do not remember.
I do think you should have scored higher than you did. |

Sorry, I don't get the tie in to Larson or the Far side. |

I don't find this particularly funny (Far Sides aren't always funny, either), but it's still a well-executed pun and is more interesting as a photo than it would be as a cartoon (I consider that a good thing, since this is a photography challenge). 9 |

Great shot, I love your setup and your Post P. my suggestion would be to make it look a little more like the guy from the strip (really nerdy and silly looking) that was half the fun. |
