Scott,

I think the composition and lighting could have been better; leaving the big portion void has affected the balance of the image, i am afraid

Further a long DOF would have been more pleasing, i feel

Regards

Love the composition, the blank space gives a great lead in, great use of DOF gives a real sense of distance. If I was to crit and it's only a tiny thing, I'd boost the contrast to make the most out of the shadows and clone the marks on the wall.

I don't know that I could boost the contrast without blowing out part of the photo.

But you're right about the shadows. I should have used a stronger light source.

nothing wrong with the shadows for me. The image just looks two-tone and not enough composition to really shine.

I don't understand what you mean. Can you extrapolate?

Thanks.

i like the use of negative space in this image

Yea maybe crop this to be horizontal, cutting out that space of empty wall.

Too much wall and the one leave is cut off on the left.

if you diagonally divide the image, you see one half is almost empty and the whole activity is on the other half; that is an imbalance, no?
