Greetings from the Critique Club

Hi Timothy,

This is a nice aquarium shot. Man those creatures frighten me - even with a nice thick piece of glass between they give me the creeps.

I'm not a huge fan of the cool colour tones (the blue hue across the shot). Obviously it is an underwater scene and it is natural to expect these tones, but I would have liked the bright colours of the other fish to be more distinct. As a result the whole image looks a bit flat.

I think many voters did mark you down a little for not adequately demonstrating that you were shooting within the spirit of the challenge. Obviously Bits & Pieces is a bit of a indefinite challenge topic, nonetheless voters would have expected more evidence of you complying to it.

Cheers
Paul

Sorry, I just don't usually like pictures of captive animals. Not because they are captive, but because you usually don't have to do much work to photograph them. Still, it is a cool shot. Although it could've been better if the color of the shark didn't mach the water so close. I'm sure it was completely unavoidable, just giving my honest opinion.
