Critique Club Review
There is a lot going on in this photo, perhaps a bit too much. Overall I like this picture. However, as related to the challenge, the sign is overshadowed by the rest of the picture. I like the shop, and the car under the tree. It looks like something you would have seen here in California in the 60's. A bit too much parking lot in the foreground I think. Also focus seems a bit soft looking at the people in the shop. It looks like you were fighting a very bright day here, as the roof is almost bleached white to get any kind of light into the shadows in the shop. Judging from the shadows, this was a "high noon" shot, which are the worst for getting detal as the direct overhead sun wants to render things flat. Perhaps another shot later in the day would give better results. |

COuld have captured more on the sign and less on the surroundings. |

Beautiful colors. Color of water mixes well with the color of sky. nice composition. |

As a roadsign it doesn't interest me, however I find the mini parked under the tree kind of cute - with some creative editing that could become a cool photo. Technically though your photo is ok - composition is good, the image is perhaps a little overexposed or too bright though. |

don't like this...the inside is too dark (nothing you can do about that) shack isn't level, otherwise it's ok, the sharpness and brightness are right on. this just looks too much like a snap shot, kind of thrown together haphazardly |

Lovely shot, great color! Focus seems a little weak for the inside of the shop, but that's to be expected shooting from bright sunlight into a darker setting. The rest of the shot seems very well done. 7 Swash |

Seems very much like just a touristy snapshot. Especially with the car and tree off to the side that doesn't really have a purpose of being there. |
