GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB:
After a long hiatus, I'm back working at the duties of the Critique Club, where we try to give an indepth review of the image randomly set before us. If you find this review helpful, please tick the box that says so. then the Critique Club members feel as if they are really helping!

Okay, this image has a lot going for it, simply because it is original.

Technically it has a bit of a problem, because I suspect the photographer wanted the b'ground to be solid black, but those unfortunate streaks to the right of the image worked against you for that effect.

Now, a purist might argue that you've given your runner two knees, but without them, you would not have the motion effect. So, that's okay, and besides it works.

What would really set this fun image apart would be if the stick figure were carrying something. Preferably something bright red, to give a strong focal point.

It's a good image. Personally, while voting, I gave it an 8, for originality.

Keep up the good work.

I like the idea, but I would have found the photo extremely boring if it wasn't for the lighting on the background. It makes the shot!
