Greetings from the Critique Club!
Ok this may be hard to give a critique since I'd rather you be critiquing my images. :) But here goes...
Technicals:
Flawless. The lighting is impeccable. MAYBE if you shot this a bit more underexposed in RAW you could have fine tuned the hot spots better, but that's a major nitpick. The color is fantastic. I don't think you could have treated the color any better to convey night.
Subject/composition:
Excellent choice in subject. It stands out so well in the challenge. Composition wise I can't envision a better angle. Maybe there was but you pulled this off so well I almost don't want to see if there's a better way to show off this structure.
Verdict/Summary:
A winner. Not just a winner in the challenge but a winner as a standalone photograph. Congrats on your multiple ribbons and for pulling off this striking image.
Edited for spelling.

I love the use of shapes in this one. Though i might say they are a bit too obvious in your composition, they add to a feeling of structural stability. Even the alignment of the lights in the front form triangles. Magnificent night shot! |

Congratulations on this beautiful capture and ribbon!
(DPC provides us with great motivation. I, too, saw the fountain in my area for the first time at night.) |

I visited this temple in 2004 and while its beautiful in the daytime, you've captured a whole new charm at night! |

Congrates, Arvinder!!Just third challenge and you nailed it. WOW, really nice shot. I didn't know it's in Delhi. It looks like Sydney Opera House. Once again congrates on your first ribbon. |

Very nice photograph, very interesting building. Excellent job on the exposure. Feels a little tilted though. Well done! |

This is a tremendous picuture. I like how the lines of lights lead you to the temple. |

Great shot! It's unfortunate that the horizont is not straight, it breaks the perfect symetry of the picture. |

Ever-so-slightly tilted horizon, but, nonetheless, amazing shot; I just love the clarity and sharpness. Great job! |

Thanks for this photo. Symmetry is very appealing. Your photo came after I voted for a bunch of bad ones. |

This photo will probably do well, but I've seen this building photographed too many times to appreciate it. |
|
|
05/12/2006 04:27:59 PM |
BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL..... I can see this as a poster. My only critique is that the left side seems a degree or two lower than the right. Easy to fix. The hard things to fix are exposure and focus and you nailed both. Great JOB 9 |

Oh what a beautiful image - I love this temple though I didn't visit it during my recent trip to India - have only been once. You've really captured it well here. |

It is a beautiful tempel and perfect picture. The lights in front (particularly the one on the right) are driving attention a bit. 9. |

Fantastic building. Everything's very symmetrical and it works well for me. Nice colour. |

Nice color and detail. Nicely exposed. |

Great potential, but the slightly counterclockwise-rotated building is a bit distracting. First thing that grabbed me was the lighting and texture. Second thing that immediately followed was "why didn't he/she straighten the horizon?". |

Yes. . .Lotus Temple in night light is VERY beautiful!! And you've done a great job of exposing it properly and composing this shot! Great job! |

well done and I like how clear and in focus the temple is as well as the lights coming towards the viewer, would have been nice to have some detail in the lower part of the building and the building seems alittle tilted, only small details though, seven |
|
|
05/10/2006 10:55:34 PM |
Yummy. Good color and sharpness. I think I would have liked to see the building and not the landing strip leading up to it. - 7 |

I smell a kiwi, but I could be wrong. Great picture |
|
|
05/10/2006 05:39:50 PM |
Lovely architectural shot! The symmetry is near perfect. I wonder if a portrait orientation would have been better so more sky is seen. (10) |
|
|
05/10/2006 04:09:16 PM |
Maybe my imagination but it feels tilted to the left. Distracts a bit from a wonderful subject, well photographed and presented. |
