 I'm sure I'll not be the only "welding shot" for this challenge. Would like to thank my friend Gernot (the metal worker) for his patience.

Greetings from the Critique Club.

First impressions are that this shot is a pleasure to view.

Technically it is great. Lighting is good, the light trails are perfect, composition is good.

Artistically this is also good as we see plenty of interest in what the man is doing.

In summary a good solid shot that didn't score as high as I'd have thought but it does lack a little of the required excitement that DPC needs.

Feel free to PM me if you have any queries.
Gerry

I just love welding photos and this is really good! I entered one in the last Heat challenge and it got decidedly snubbed. I would have had this one on the front page -- but the voters obviously disagree with us about what makes a cool heat photo, don't they!

Nice -- but perhaps a bit closer up would have strengthened it for a hot challenge. (no vote -- just a comment)

I had a similar shot of my own that I had considered for this challenge, but bringing out the details from the darkness created more noise than I wanted to have in a challenge entry. Yours is nice and clear. Good job on this.

A difficult to shoot subject, but nicely done.
