Hi Steve,
I didn't vote this challenge or even see this until just now. I don't know if you need a critique from someone whose current challenge picture is barely scoring higher than this did, but since you wanted more I'll give you my one cent worth.
As expected here is the critique about the tight crop. It's hard to tell what the two stuffed animals are. The duck especially just looks like a yellow puff with eyes and nose stuck on it, which barely gets you the meets challenge vote. I like the teeth and Rex's eye. It is nice and sharp, thanks to f20, and the foreground coloring is good. Other than that there's not much of interest to hold my attention. The background is just there to be a background but doesn't contribute to it. I guess you have a large house plant by your kitchen table. Maybe a drop of "blood" coming off the tooth would give it punch. |
