Very minimalistic shot with some very nice colors. I think perhaps I would have preferred just a little more ground included in the shot.

Wonderful use of negative space in this one. Good job. 10.

I like how you have used the blue negative space here. It is a little disconcerting that there is an obvious curvature there, but it is still a nice shot.

This must look very cool when you can see it bigger, like 1024px on the wide side. I think that the size here at DPC unables you to show its full potential and impact. But I'll vote on it as if it does, because I really like the idea. :)

In my honest opinion there is just too much blank space here... and I'm really looking for something dominant on the bottom.

I think that you have too much sky for the image. It looks like you have some cows in the lower part of the pic. I would like to see so much more of them, and less of the solid blue upper part of the pic.

Greetings from the Critique Club

Hi Majanka! In my opinion, you did a very fine job with this challenge. What I liked is the seemingly very real emotional bond between these two inanimate objects. You've convinced the viewer that these two are genuinely friends, from the pose you have Woody in and his gentle touch on his friend Ducky. The burning around the edges creates a nice vignetting touch which also adds to the "relationship" impression. Lighting is very good, focus is fine, and the simple composition helps create the simple message of friendship.

As I mentioned in my comment during the challenge, the one thing I did notice was that the Ducky seems awfully big compared to the Woody, but it's not distracting to me in any way. In fact, it creates just a bit more interest because of the size disparity.

Very nice job!

Friends, inseparable.

Congratulations on your top 30 finish, San! I like this shot, although I hate woodies and duckies ;-)
