My computer was pissing me off all through editing this and I'm not sure I like the shot. I hope somebody else does.

*Critique Club*

Personally I like the shot. It is a rare shot to get all the placement just right for something like this, with the moon, the glow, the man and the height. I think it would have been hard to title this one, but voters seem critical of things like that. Personally I scored you higher and I think other should have too. I like the subject is looking up as opposed to the typical downward depression. I think if you cropped this image tighter you would have lost some of the effect between the moon and structure. I think the shot maybe we have scored a little higher with a softer shot then with the harder noise. But I think you did an excellent job.

I didn't comment, and I usually don't do this, but it is a shame this didn't at least get over a six. I am actually very confused as to why not? Perhaps a little grainy, i don't know. I bet if you titled "Great Wall" or something, people would have context and then say "ahh, sh#$, that is sweet." who knows...Checked out your profile, DU huh, I was over there the other day to check out Dietrich's breakfast. I would say better chocolate than breakfast. Have a great time in China, and take a lot of pictures.

It kind of seems speckled, bad quality I assume. Good photo, bad quality.

I like the composition. The sky seems a bit grainy, but that might be from your exposure time? or you like grain? Anyhow, I think your photo shows creativity and ingenuity.

very nice shot: cool idea, great setting, very emotive... you need a title though!... and the bright light is a bit distracting
