Talya's critique (critique club on break)
This was one of the most subtly done, yet most obvious occupations photos. I really liked the simplicity of it.
Composition - superb - I love that bright flag in the upper left hand corner. All the lines lead to the flag, and it is really well done. Plus I like how you made this a vertical photo, gives the look of standing straight and tall. Excellent job on this aspect!
Focus - i would have tried to have everything in focus here... the flag even looks maybe just slightly fuzzy. and it would have made the shot better if the whole thing were in focus. Also I'm not sure what happened on the very left side, but that out of focus piece is very distracting, pretty much the only thing I don't like about the photo.
Lighting and Exposure - both things are perfect on here... No complaints! It's well lighted all around, nice job!
Fit for challenge - truly perfect... I could tell right from the first second I saw it what you did. Really wonderful job, and good job of stating the obvious but not in an obvious way (does that make sense? HEHEHE) I thoguht this photo fulfilled the challenge better then many of the others.
Colors - good choice of keeping this in color, would not have been effective in Black and white.
Overall - fabulous job on this pic. I really liked it! I thought it was perfect for the challenge, and a very touching photo. The title was cute as well. I gave this an 8. Nice job!

| I only wish our species would use our brains to the point that you and your compatriots the world around could gracefully and permanently retire. Until then I certainly hope you can stay safe and sane. |

| Perhaps I'm biased because my son is serving, but I really like the way you made the statement. Would have been so easy to go with weapons/troops/installations. Everything is told in one simple pciture. Depth of field could have been a smidge better. 9 |

| I have great respect for you, your photo, and your occupation. You have two of my sons with you. What an awesome idea of a way to display the uniform. The texture is fantastic. I love this cropping, the lighting, the composition. You lost your focus a little at the bottom, but not enough to hurt anything - emotions did not distract my critique. God bless you and God bless America. This is worth a 10. PTL |
