Greetings from the Critique Club!
Ha! My very next photo on the cue after reading your email regarding my first critique!
I liked the humour of this photo but it wasn't a perfect viewing experience for me. I've looked at it pretty carefully and I can only conclude that I find the cropping a bit tight. I think the intent was to get a good capture of their expressions but I would like to see a bit more of the ridiculous costumes and maybe some context, like a smirking glance from a passerby. While I'll agree this is quite obviously an embarrasing situation, their embarrasment would be more keenly felt by the viewer if their humilation was being witnessed by someone other then himself.
I like the color combination quite a bit. I'm not crazy about what appears to be a desaturated background. I think the blurring would have been sufficient to separate the subjects. As it is, the delineation is so sharp they seem almost super-imposed on the background.
I liked the originality of the subject and the street photography quality of the effort. |
