So, out of the blue he asks... What is wrong with this shot?
It's often interesting to actually ask what is wrong with a photo rather than just posting it and waiting for the attaboys, great shot, good eye, comments.
People seem to feel more inclined to respond with a negative when that is what was asked for. I don't pretend to know it all. I just know what I like and in the case of this photo I found the finished photo to be very appealing to me but.....
Over the last couple of days I've had mixed reviews of this shot. Some could not say what it was they did not like.. they just did not like it. Others simply indicated that they did not like the vignetting or post work. A few just hated the subject matter. So, my question to you guys is what is wrong with it? Understanding how others look at something that I find appealing gives insight into how others see what I see.. and that can be a valuable lesson.
This was taken with the M8 and the 28mm Elmarit with post in CS3.
