Greetings from Andi via the Critique Club
First Impression: Well, its been said in enough comments so won't go on too much about the challenge description that was sadly overlooked misread. As a shot its clean and simple yet quite a compelling scene, I think it would have done quite a bit better in a free study or correctly themed challenge.
Composition: Excellent composition with the basalt sitting nicely in the rule of thirds. The mix of sky and grassland adds to the overall size of the tower.
Subject: Great subject, I've just come back from holiday and a trip to the Staffa, the basalt Island in the inner hebredes - not a patch on this shot.
Technical: Spot on technically though maybe a little more detail in the woodland would help a little? My monitor is well calibrated but just a touch dark.
Final thoughts: I really like the overall scene and colours, its a great landscape and different from the norm here (thats a good thing btw). Yup, I need to finish on the fact that its a dnmc from me. Feel free to pm me if you want any clarification Tom. |

| What an amazing basalt formation! Where is this? New Zealand? Nicely balanced shot with strong colours. Looks like a dinosaur is about to appear any second.... |

| Great pic, but I don't understand how it meets the challenge description. Lots of stuff in this challenge that does not. Maybe it's me that's missing something... |

| It appears as though you either did not understand or chose to ignore the challenge description. Nice photograph, just not for this challenge. |
