*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
A lovely nature shot that tries to meet the challenge in a different and interesting way.
Given the specifics of the challenge brief that the shot should be taken during the golden hour of dusk or dawn I'm not sure that your image exhibits the qualities of light that are to be expected at those times. Don't get me wrong, I do like the shot and the way it portrays a golden feel through the lovely colour of the crop. I also like the golden bokeh and the shapes that the crop is being blown into slanting across the frame as it does.
What I don't like is the overexposure, in particular on the crucial area of the topmost head which is probably the most important of all of the heads. One or two of the bokeh circles are also burnt out which detracts in an important part of the image. The top of the image is horribly burnt out too which detracts from the overall result somewhat. It is this area that signifies to me that it was not taken during the softer and more amenable light of the golden hour and therefore fails to meet the challenge directly, the light is just too harsh.
I do like your interpretation, thanks for the submission, Sid |
