Technically this shot is just fine, but I feel that I need something to focus on to keep from getting lost in the details. It would make a good big image, but is difficult to enjoy looking at the details at this size.
Like the BW and the play of textures. Not sure about the contrast; I suspect all was brighter than the photo conveys. Difficult to judge this sort of picture at this size - a general difficulty at DPC - both for shooting and preparing and for critiquing.
nice reed and water shot. I shoot these sometimes myself and know that processing is a challenge - ie to get enough contrast for interest without overdoing it. This seems a little too contrasty for my tastes (which are probably too subdued). I know this is personal preference but I wonder if you tried less contrast but increasing the blacks using the levels slider. LG
