::: Greetings from Critique Club :::
Hi, as requested, here is an indepth critique of your submission.
First Impression - the most important one:
What a lucky capture to have had for this challenge :-) Definitely not a typical shot here.
Composition:
Composition is ok. I think it works well for this image.
Subject:
The subject stands out well from the wooded background.
Technical (Color, focus, and light):
Focus seems ok. Light is pretty good, but the blue tint to the shadows in the trees is a bit distracting. I'm thinking this was probably a Haze issue with UV light. I think you could have taken care of that with slective color in photoshop.
To grow its vote?:
The color issue probably could have grown its vote a little, More agressive editing could have made this shot more dramatic.
Summary:
I really think this shot is cool. And am glad to see that it scored reasonably well in this challenge. NICE CAPTURE!
Hope to see more from you soon,
Leroy |

| Cool photo, but I don't see "failure" so much as falling. |

| What? Is that actually being blown up? Awesomee moment you captured there, I love the detail inthe smoke and in the birds flying away and all that. Image quality could be a bit better though, seems a bit flat and could use some boosting in the contrast but the moment is superb, it got an 8 from me. |

| Really good shot of tower destruction. Without your title I would have a hard time matching it to the challenge. |

| Well composed and exposed stop-motion capture. I think that it fits into the challenge nicely, but I'd like to see it with a bit less haze. A slight curves adjustment would have helped out a great deal. |

Hmmm so I guess you are saying Nuclear Power is a failure? Does this shot represent nuclear power as failure? Not really. If you would have had a shot of the Chernobyl plant in the Soviet Union and it's effects on the area and titled it accordingly then I would have voted 6 - 10 depending on the shot.
However...this shot will get a score from me based on the technical aspects of the shot only. |

| oh no! awesome capture, I wish the photo had more contrast and wasn't lightened up so much, but you probably had to do this to bring out the picture as this was probably a very quick capture, nice composition and good focus though, nice work |

| Great capture, looks a little washed out, not sure if bumping up the contrast would help. |

| I saw this on the News. Looks pretty spectacular. Think I like it better without the sky at the top. |

| without the title, A successful demolishion job....4 |

| Did you know that is the structure that inspired the Simpsons. |

| Right place, right time. Nicely caught. Nicely developed. Would also have been a winner in Photojournalism a few challenges ago. |

| Great action shot. Um...you think you may have been a little to close to that for health's sake?? |
|

| What is happening there? Isn't that dangerous? Sorry, I don't know anything about nuclear power. In my country we use waterfalls |

| thinking the jury is still out- interesting photo though- imagine it was tough to decide the cropping because i can't decide if i like what i see or not |

| Hey, terrific! You found your vantage point and got your shot! |

| Whoa! Great capture! :) If I looked over and saw that sight, I may have quite possibly needed a change of shorts. Very unique occurence to capture. :) |
