CRITIQUE CLUB CRITIQUE

Compositionally, I really like this shot. The white rope is an attention getter that draws the eye to the center cord and then through the rest of the shot. It is balanced with the main focus being on the right third and the shallow dof being more in the left of the frame. At first I disagreed with the suggestion of a tighter crop/frame, but the more I look at it, the more I think it may make the composition stronger.
Technically, it has good dof and focus where the focus needs to be. My only thought is that it is a bit "gray." I believe a bit more black would give it some more depth and *pop*.
Overall, it is a nice nautical scene, and frankly, I'm surprised it didn't score higher.
Best wishes and Good work.

nice use of line and texture. The one rope that seems to be white establishes a nice focal point. |
