Beautiful... I like the composition and the colors.. I am not a big fan of this font, but again, i dont posess the capability to choose the best font. So I better dont comment on font. :) Overall, a very interesting shot.

Critique Club feedback -

Everything I would say abou this entry you already figured outfor yourself and are showing off in your 'what I would do know' shot. Only commentary I would add would be look for a font that delivers the message with authority. Forum experts aside, fonts such as Times New Roman are not the tools of designers who lack creativity - they have a look to them that adds a feeling of authority and impact to the message they deliver.

The photo itself here is quite beautiful. Could consider centering it in the frame or cropping wider a bit so you can push it up a bit more into the right corner.

Good work!

The photograph is absolutely perfect. Excellent light, depth, color saturation, focus - everything! Your re-do with the text works very well. Definitely something you can print and hang and have it look very, very professional.

Good photo. Fits with the phrase. The text could use more negative space but that's about it. Good luck.

excellent colorful shot. typeface ain't a good choice, also headline shouldn't be wider than the picture

Nice colors. The font isn't what most posters of this kind use.
