OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy):
Positives: I like how you have fully committed to your vision for this image; you haven't shied away from the grain, the high contrast or the deep shadows. It all works together very well. Is it the most exciting scene? No; but your post processing has served the image well - you have augmented it and elevated it to something of beauty. There is art in that act.
Critical stuff: Not much really, I really like it - I can't really make any suggestions, I think this is one of those images where even small changes would affect the overall impression greatly, so it is just fine the way it is. |
