::: Critique Club :::
Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.
First Impression - the most important one:
Its a pity I am an ex-smoker .. I can still smell the stuff.
Composition:
Works for this picture.
Subject:
meets the challenge well and truly.
Technical (Colour and light):
Great colour and good use of DOF ... I like that the fags in the background are out of focus as this gives a great impression of trying to quit and failing.
To grow its vote?:
hard to say .. this type of shot works for some and not others ...
Summary:
I think this is a great second entry .. you have a good eye .. keep using it.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via
the PM system.
Cheers
Kari |

| Nice choice of DOF, works well here in isolating the subject from an appropriate backround. |

Try out a b&w version too.
Nice DoF brings out the subject from the backgroung.
I would have left more place on the left and not put the cigarette in the middle, I think it would be more comfortable for the eye. |

| My choice for a definite top 10 finish. Composition, lighting, color and DOF are all right on the money. Well done! |

| Great composition and nice lighting. I also like the depth of field use, but I'd really like to see the back of the ash tray focused and the cig pack left out of focus. I know...too picky. Nice capture and great concept. |
