Greetings from the Critique Club
composition
Overall I think this is a nice composition. If I could change anything I would get a bit closer, and try to fill up the frame with those beautiful feathers.
color
Wonderful job here. The colors turned out very bright and bold.
contrast
Again, if you were just a bit closer to the subject I think that it would help... I especially like the way the colors contrast where they meet his head, the feathers on the wand that is in his left hand, and where the white ribbon overlaps his teal pants.
focus
This apect of the shot is great. I love how the feathers are blurred, and the face/body is frozen. I wish the trees were not in such sharp focus though.
depth of field
Would have been nice to see a bit shallower depth of field so that the trees were not in focus, and more attention would have been drawn to the subject.
lighting
Nice job.
any other element of the photo that stands out or is lacking in some way
Overall this photo is wonderful. It kept me entertained for a long time, and really captured the motion of his dance quite well. Thank you for sharing it with us, I hope this helps. ~Rob |
