Greetings from the Critique Club...
Hi Tim :)
You are such a fortunate photographer to live in the pacific northwest. I envy that :) If you have a couch for lease sometime, I'll have to come visit and get you to take me to some of these beautiful places :)
I love the theme of this photo. It's a nice integration of raw nature and urban encroachment... lol.. does that make sense? My 'fluff factor' isn't working so well after the night out...
Obviously, I don't know what is visible off to the right in this frame, but if this shoreline was visible, I think that curve would offer some nice fluidity for the eye. The dog is perfectly positioned in this composition though.
Here's a thought from my one track mind for ya.... You know I like black and whites. I think one of the reasons I produce so many of them is because when I feel that the color is not adding to the composition, I usually remove it. There are some instances where it works either way, but most don't. I'm wondering if this particular photo would make a nice contrasty b/w with a little editing. Maybe you could also discuss this idea with me. I would love to hear your side of that as an artist.
Keep up the good work :)
John Setzler

Wassup with the colors, or lack there of. |

A great scene apparently compromised by fading light. Maybe a flash could have captured some detail in the dog and livened up the foreground? Plenty of room for type. I like the composition, although I'd flip the shot to get the dog more to the right (important for magazines believe it or not). |

I love all three parts of this shot. The mountain, the city, and the dog. But I'm confused. What information do you want me to receive. There are too many subjects Where is this? I want to visit. jajaja

A little soft and too centered. I might have tried cropping the dog out. |

GREAT shot, shame it was so dark, a bit more sunshine would have scored higher with me.

I'd like to see a little more of the sky and less of the beach, but it does give the dog nice spacing. I like the 'duel' subjects |

this photo may suffer from simply having too much good stuff in it! :) |
