Hello from the Critique Club!
I have studied your image and have the following to offer:
Composition/perspective Γ’ the composition of this shot is very well done. Placement of the cameras was well thought out and very nicely executed. Not pointing directly at any of the lenses adds a lot of strength. The wood is a very nice element and adds a very nice contrast between the hard elements of the cameras and the softer wood grains and textures. Very nice aspect of the scene. The focus seems just a bit on the soft side Γ’ I find this a plus (intentional?) and really helps to add to the nostalgic mood of the scene. The processing (see below) is also another element that just adds to the mood and the perfect choice. I donΓ’t think this would have been as strong if done in pure black and white. The top right hand camera is a little bright, but the camera ID is still clearly visible so nothing is really lost. Overall, very well done composition.
Color Γ’ b/w, processed to sepia, I think this is one of the stronger elements of this composition. Pure black and white I donΓ’t think would have translated the mood of this shot as well as the sepia does. Excellent choice!
Lighting Γ’ not too bright although a little on the bright side. Shadows are well controlled and there are no really bright or dark areas where detail is lost. Placement was well thought out as the reflections all seem well placed/controlled.
Challenge requirements Γ’ certainly meets the requirements of the challenge. Strong subject objects that capture the interest right away really help this image stand out.
Overall/my opinion Γ’ there are a lot of subtle elements in this shot that give it a unique look and feel Γ’ the wood, placement of the cameras Γ’ slightly opposing, the slight angle of the top camera lend to it being more natural as opposed to a perfect set up job. Well done!

| Nice collection but it looks like maybe you needed to stop down a little more to hold the bottom cameras in sharp focus. Nice shot. |
