Lighting is too bright, contributing to a washed out appearance. The composition is good, but I might have tried a different aperture setting.

poorly framed (sign grass-tree-line and head all converge), overexposed

I hate power lines, but I suppose they are necessary. If it had been possible, I think cropping the car out and cropping just below his feet and including more to the left and at the top would be effective. karmat

I would like to see this landscaped, closer to the artist, and stopped down a couple. The brightness is causing the edges to catch a video haze, and could benefit from a bit less light.

I think this photo is a bit over exposed... A polarizer could help in a situation like this...

Could you have gotten a better shot from over his shoulder? I know it is overdone to do that, but I think some of what he is painting got lost in your image and takes away from your shot. Nice job, though.

This is good. I think I would have liked it a little better if you could have cropped the road out.7 boyte1

Could have been more cropped at the left to remove the car, could have cropped the bottom a bit too.

I dont see the negative space. Too much going on in the background

this could have been cropped better... getting rid of the car and the road would have emphasized the negative space.

Little over exposed here and needed to move around so as to leave the car out of the shot. That or have the whole car in the shot. Still I see what you were going for and I like the idea. Score 5 Justine

This has unrealized potential. Needed to get rid of the road and car, and work on the exposure.
