Greetings from the Critique Club!
First, let me say that I am not a professional or even a very good amature photographer, so you may want to take my comments with a grain of salt.
Meeting the Challenge: Definitely! It makes me feel like a kid again.
Composition: I agree that the crop seems a bit off. I don't feel like I need to see the whole toy - in fact, I think I like the feeling of energy that comes from the partial car. But I think that a looser crop on the top would bring it more into balance by showing more of the rear of the car. A solid color background may be less distracting but as there is not much background there, this is not as big of an issue as it would otherwise be.
Lighting: Pretty good. I think the right could be lit a bit more, and the left a bit less, as you lose a bit of details - especially to the left where the light merges with the car. It's not a huge problem as the merging of light and car does give a feel of movement, but that would have been enhanced by the beams of light being more consistant with each other.
Color: AWESOME. I love it. One of the best aspects to this photo, in my opinion.
Camera Work: Everything is clear and crisp. I am impressed with the attention to detail that this photo shows.
Post Processing: Details are sharp, the glow adds vibrance, highlights and shadows are very nice. You definitely accomplished what you wanted to with this.
Title: I would have prefered to see a less-obvious title, but this one is fine.
Image Dimensions and Filesize: Although not noticable, the filesize should be as close to 150kb as possible to minimize compression artifacts.
Misc / My subjective thoughts: It reminds me of something in a comic book or cartoon. I think it captures the feeling of children - colorful, vibrant, full of energy.
I hope this helps! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions. |
