I was one of your 22 fours. I've seen your forum post so perhaps I should explain why I scored it quite low.
Mainly I score high for images rich in story, often I'll score high for images that are wall hangingly beautiful and sometimes I'll score high because of fabulous execution.
For me, your image doesn't fall into any of these categories. Of course I can see it is competent but I get no sense of rationale from it - it doesn't convince me that this was a scene that fascinated you.
The subject isn't the most enthralling and the processing is harsh, over sharp - especially at the centre and the whole image is bright and hard on the eyes - there is nothing here that makes the eye want to wander and explore - all mystery and ambiguity has been obliterated, every detail revealed as if illuminated by its own spotlight.
For me, a visual representation as to why more is sometimes less.
I hope you don't mind the comment; it is offered in the spirit of transparency. |
