Great perspecitve. This is a fine example of seeking out new angles to point our cameras for dramatic photos. |

Greetings from the Critique Club!
Well, a lot of sung praise to your submission so there isn't a lot I can say that hasn't already been said. At best I may end up summarizing what previous comments have already said.
Exposure: yes the skies are dark but that is quite effective here. It creates a nice ominous mood for the sky. It also helps create a strong contrast with the color of the life preserver. A light sky would weaken the effect considerably.
Composition: Simple but effective. Good negative space on the left but its got enough detail for the eye to see something interesting. The diagonal lines on the lighthouse effectively take your eye into the picture. The position of the life preserver is excellent: in a strong position without overpowering the shot.
Color: Great rich colors that are nicely saturated without going overboard.
The Challenge: Definitely meets the challenge. At 4th place the voters agree too.
Overall: Great image. Sadly DPC doesn't give ribbons for 4th place because this shot deserves one. |

The straight up angle of this is very unique and neat. It's very dynamic how the ultra white tower leads right up to that dark polarized sky. The red object helps to perfectly anchor and balance the whole scene. Excellent! |
