8 May 24 Comment Thanks, everyone, for the helpful feedback. I see now that that door handle is a problem! May 21st
8 May 24 Comment The story I see is the moment when crossing waves meet in a burst of energy. The subdued blues and greens, at the threshold of my perception, create an interesting effect where I perceive color away from my point of attention. As my eyes roam around, the color seems always to shift away from where I'm looking. This creates a liveliness I enjoy quite a lot. It draws me in. I wonder if someone with better color perception than I would see this very differently. May 21st
8 May 24 Comment A wonderful moment you captured here! Hard to know for sure, but I suspect this would have been even better if you had rotated your camera 90 degrees, getting more of the child and less of the blobs on the left. May 21st
8 May 24 Comment I agree that this works with the aperture you used. You found an excellent subject and your timing was spot on to capture the smoking gesture. Those, for me, are the most important things. That said, I agree that cropping would improve this. Consider bringing the left edge in a bit so it doesn't chop that man's face. I'd consider cropping way up from the bottom, maybe as far as just below the stripe on the cuff of your subject's left arm. That bit on the right isn't a distraction if you crop up that far. May 21st
8 May 24 Comment I like the shadows and the mysterious darkness on the left from which they emerge. If this were mine I'd darken the highlights on the right to help the viewer's attention stay on those interesting shadows. Or crop? May 21st
8 May 24 Comment I like the diagonal composition, with land lower left giving away to cloud upper right. The roughly equal area given to both provides a nice balance. The subject is vast, but the image feels intimate to me. With crisper detail in the trees it would feel even more intimate. May 21st
