Greetings from the Critique Club
First Impression
There's a story to be told here. I want to know more (still do). Who didn't receive the letter? The military person, or the girl(s)?
Looking Deeper
What a wonderfully done still life! The lighting and presentation is right on for me. Color tone, detail, DOF...very nice. Reminds me a little of what you might find on display at a historical site or museum.
I'm really hard pressed to find anything that's not right here. Ok, the button with the man's image on it...it fell out of the focal plane. There, found something. :-)
Seriously. You did a great job with this. It scored and placed pretty well, and those that commented on it during voting loved it (avg commenter score 8.0909). This challenge was a tough concept to photograph IMO. Really, the only reason I can see for the votes below a 6 is the viewer/voter's connecting this to the challenge theme. One of your commenters made the observation that without the title they didn't see a connection to the challenge. Many vote and move on; I wouldn't be surprised if some of those had similar feelings about this entry.
So...what is the rest of the story? :-D
Questions? If so, please feel free to send me a PM. Thanks! |

| This is a very nice image all around. I am not sure that the image would stand on its own in the misunderstanding challenge without the caption, but that would be my only complaint. |
