::: Critique Club :::

Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.

First Impression - the most important one:
I don't like that Doc .. she got needles .. and i hate them ... great work

Composition:
This is quite well done .. she is not centered .. she looks comfortable .. she also looks like she knows what she is doing.

Subject:
Sort of meets the challenge ... although it does not contain what would be the environment .. by being stark it creates the impression.

Technical (Colour and light):
Good work here .. nice and crisp and works in black and white.

To grow its vote?:
I think it may be the lack of the environement that didn't help here ... but the shot is good .. don't give her a copy for her wall it will scare kids.

Summary:
Good work again ... interesting shot ...

If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.

Cheers

Kari

I would've given this a 10...but I fainted. ;-P

j/k - I missed voting the challenge, but this one stood out and I think it's an excellent image with a journalistic style to it. Well done.

Great eyes she has; difficult shot really - all that white is terribly difficult to control in exposure. Brings to mind that cold feeling of liquid being forced into one's veins: kind of exciting and fearful at the same time.

I think for this particular shot, I would have preferred a deeper DOF so that the hand and syringe were in focus as well. I hope that needle wasn't for you!

Would have been even better with a medical related background

I think this is a very good interpretation of the challenge. It's also a very nice shot.

Black and white suits here. Good lighting and crop. I like how it's not posy but it's not a candid either.

it might be nice to have the syringe in her hand in focus to , unless this was the look you were looking for, very sharp on her.
