Hey there from the Critique Club

First off, always try to include some info about the shot in the Photographer's Comments section. It really helps out when we know what the photographer was thinking and what equipment/lighting/etc. were used, especially when you request a critique.

Camera Work/Technical: Everything in the frame is nicely focused and nicely exposed. The lights are just a bit blown out, but nothing outside what you'd expect with a night photograph.

Lighting: This one is nicely lit. It really provides for a very calm, peaceful mood.

Composition/Content: This area is lacking in your capture. As rick13601 pointed out, there really is nothing that grabs the eye. It just looks open and peaceful, but lacks a real point of interest.

My Opinion: I believe that this one scored pretty well for what you captured. Technically, you have a fine image. Great lighting, great exposure and great BW post-processing. With a more defined subject, this one would have scored much, much better. It fits the challenge very well, and the title compliments it perfectly.

Nice. I appreciate pictures of sort of non-places with no direct subject. Kind of atmospheric, kind of documentary-like. Wish the truck wasn't there, but can't be helped.
