Rate the photo above you!

[ZacDaMan72]

I searched for a thread like this and while this sub-forum is for critiquing, I thought it would be a fun thing to do.

Rules:
1. The photo has to be 1 single photo of yours (obviously). Any type (wildlife, architecture etc.) can be put here.
2. You cannot rate the photo below you, but if you want to reply to your rater's comments, that's fine.
3. Have fun!

How are we rating? On a scale? 1-10?

I rate this a 6.

Obviously is was done at a dealership and it more of a snapshot than a actually shoot. Other cars in the background, people etc.

There is also a strong reflection on the windshield, whether that was done on purpose or not, it bothers me. jmo

I do like the actual car though, angle, focus, everything. I just think the location ruins it.


One from the archives, that I never shared.

I went through your flickr, and I think I would have given most of your pictures a 9 or even a 10.

In this one IMO there's something missing (it could just be me). The subject in the center looks strange, and putting it at the sides would create a lot of empty space. Pretty sure I'd have done a much worse job here, but I would give this a 7.

I love seeing mountains in pictures, Raj - and I love the whispy clouds on this one. out of 10, I'd go with an 8 for this.

I rate the wheel a 7. Love the colour and the silhouette, but wish the cranes didn't intersect the wheel's spokes.

I like the lighting and typically I don't like horizontal portraits(of a single person) but I think this one works. It seems a little hot on the forehead nose and right cheek. Also I think the eyes could really be emphasized with some extra work. 7/10 overall.

Pretty colors but the sun seems blown out. Clouds could use some more contrast as well, since there isn't anything particularly interesting in the image fore/background. I think if you waited for the sun to get a little lower it would have gotten some more colors as well. 6/10 would be my score

I like the photo above with the fact that the 3 boats are tied up perfectly the way they are. I feel like a lower angle would have worked better. Not sure that would have even been possible though. 6/10.
