Arches by EGibson-Photography

Today's critique brought to you by: Egibson-Photography.

Scores
Overall: 4/5
Composition:4/5
Emotion:4/5

Overall: I like the angle, but I feel that the positioning is a little off. I think black and white was a good choice for this photo, too.

Composition: I would like to see more of the lamp that's in the foreground, and the dark area on the right side is a bit of a distraction. I'd also like to see a little more space between the edge of the photo and the vanishing point. I really like the lighting and the contrast shown in this piece. The lower half contrasts quite nicely with the upper half.

Emotion: Being black and white, this photo gets a feeling that is somewhat old-timey. The angle makes it look like the distance is far, and thusly makes me think that it's going to be a long walk to get to that third lamp.

About EGibson-Photography:
Emili has been doig photography professionally for around 2 years, however, she's been a photographer for six years. She loves people photos, and feels that "clearly captures an emotion has merit." She has a tendency to prefer editorial shots. Her gallery is pretty awesome, especially since it's only a week old, and is definitely worth strolling through.

Tip of The Day:
The line between a hobbyist and a professional is a defined by whether you make money at it. However, above all else, you should take photos for yourself, because that's the way to create art. Tape a chunk of your soul to the photo - trust me, souls regenerate over time.
