Hi from the Critique Club
My first impression is that the shot is nice and clean but something feels "off". I think that the negative space is not used to good effect, the subject feels small in the frame and we are drawn to look around but the nothingness isn't helping us get into the shot.
The lighting is very good. The focus seems a little out as the horses head seems OOF.
It's not obvious (to me) at first glance that the leg is missing and the horse is broken. Does he have it tucked up in some prancing fashion perhaps? In any case, some voters may ask "did it work to start with" - you can never tell what voters think!
Overall a good shot, probably deserved a higher score than it got.
