Critiques


:iconthesilentrebellion:
Very nice work here. I don't know what lens you worked with here, but you managed to produce some wonderful bokeh with it. The perspective is interesting, and the light works wonderfully for the shot. I'm very glad you placed the dark element at the left vertically, because if you hadn't it would have been very distracting.

On a separate note, you seem to have caught some sort of red light in the bottom half of the shot which create some slightly distracting circles of colour. The the one that I find most annoying is the one on the left which has been shaped to the form of a space in the fencing. It's just a small detail that doesn't detract much from the shot, but if you would like to make a similar shot even more pleasing, you might want to make sure you have no strong lighting in an out of focus zone behind a small space in your subject as it can create these strong shapes.

What may be interesting, however, is if you were to decide to play with the effect of such shapes. Maybe some inspiration for the future?

Overall, i think it's a wonderful shot, and though I feel like I have similar shots in the past, I particularly enjoy the smooth, warm feel of this one. Good job!

I agree with *TheSilentRebellion about the red bits at the bottom, but I do think they certainly add something to the shot. The focus in this is very effective, the gradual fade to the left and right is excellent.

I like this one a lot.
