::: Critique Club :::
Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.
Interesting to do a critique on your image but it is difficult if you don't give us any information in your photographers comments. When we do a critique, we go past just the photographic result, that's what voters comments do. The critique looks at what you were trying to achieve, how you wanted it to look and what issues you had in getting the image captured and ready for voting.
First Impression - the most important one:
First up ...not bad .. I think you scored better than I did with my first!
Composition:
The composition you have is fine .. but it doesn't take advantage of the cadid of the people ... here are some addional hints for composition in future:
Composition is about leading the eye into an image (painting or photo). Research shows that the eye enters bottom left and travels up to top right ("Leading Lines Rule"). Once in there, the same research tells us that the eye finds comfort when the point of interest (POI) sits on a thirds line or intersection ("the Rule of Thirds").
Subject:
Doesn't truely meet the challenge ... as it is about the camera and not the candid.
Technical (Colour and light):
The sepia tonings work ... but be careful not to overuse them.
To grow its vote?:
Think about what the challenge is .. look at the description, if there is one, and think about what you need to make the shot. For a candid it is hard .. cos you can't set up and control the shot ... but for others I think you will be fine.
Summary:
Good shot .. keep it up .. I want to see more from you.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.
Cheers
Kari |

I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.
I don't know what this is, but it's not even close to a candid in how I interpret it to be in photography. Nice tones though! |

| Nice composition. This would be a nice entry for the Hands challenge. Better focus would help, and for this challenge, faces would help a lot. |

| Nice idea, but not sure if making the camera the main subject was the best choice |
