Hey there from the Critique Club
My thoughts on the image: You had the beginning of a very neat and interesting image here. The concept is terrific, but there are some obvious flaws in execution, in my opinion. I agree with all the comments below except for the perfect composition.
My ideas for improvement: Agreeing with Steve, the background is a bit too busy for my eye to be happy hanging out in the frame. Perhaps rotating your point of view more towards the front of the subject would have remedied this. Of course I can;t be sure as I have no knowledge of the surroundings, but I think a slightly different point of view would have grown the score. Some rotation would also take away the distracting tree and bright light in the top left corner. Also, my eye wants to see the entire skater. Chopping off his head places this more in the realm of an accidental snap shot rather than an intentionally composed work of art.
Where I would have/did score this entry: I did vote in this one and I gave it a harsh 4. However, with some moderately easy compositional changes, this one would have surely pulled a 6 or 7 from me. I love the concept, but your execution needs some adjustment.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric
