Critique Club
#2
Composition/Content - I wouldn't say "I'm not worthy" to critique a photo finishing #2 in the challenge, but it will be tough to offer constructive criticism. The picture is awesome. Nevertheless, i'll offer my thoughts. Your mandated composition was fortunate. I wonder how you would've composed it if you had greater flexibility. I might've included more of the right-most road sign, or excluded it altogether. I'm not complaining about the blown out headlights on the left side. That adds to the concept of motion, and sort of balances the image, compositionally by throwing it out of balance (if that makes any sense.)
Background - the dark sky background is perfect for this subject.
Camera Work - Technical - Don't know what i'd do differently.
Digital Processing - Sorry, same response.
Opinion - One of my all time dpc favorites |

| Very nice photo. I like how you got the building and the streets together. I also like the street lights. |

| Woo hoo! Thanks for the kind words and votes! By the way, there was no star filter involved here... that's just the way it turned out. :) |

Nice curve to road so interesting light trails though the white ones feel a bit over done to me. Good composition and colours.

| Definately a good traffic shot. the lighting is done nicely not too over exposed, the lines and curves are fantistic. The city line is fabulous. Well done. that one close street light a bit distracting, but not too bad. |

The color and detail is crisp and clear, and there is barely any noticeable noise in the background sky. It does look like the blur from the oncoming headlights in the left side of the photo is slightly overexposed and is a bit distracting. Overall, a very nice photo though.
I do admit that I'm somewhat partial towards the photo because this city skyline seems strangely familiarâ€Â¦I’m actually going to school at Pitt; didn’t know there were any other photographers from around here at DPC.

| It's been done many, many time before, but I really like yours. Highlights: the great curves, showing two way traffic, and the super star bursts. Good job and good luck. 10 |

| Don't think the star filter was necessary, at least not one with that many points. |
