OK - I'm going out on a limb here and letting you know that I scored this a '1'. Only fair to let you know why.
You may already know that this is my second go at commenting here. My first attempt came across much more harshly than it should.
First of all I should say that I use the full scale and that I am but one voter with my own expectations and 'luggage', consequently my comments are an honest reaction to this image rather than a direct commentary on your work.
Although I do this the narrow depth of field and the POV add a good degree of interest to the image, I find the light coloured background detects from you subject a little and the lack of sharpness and the clipped crop of the foreground ball doesn't give the eye an easy place to settle. Of course this may well be deliberate but for me it is a bit of a mismatch. |
