I think this is accentuated, of course, by the contrasting clouds on a dark sky but also, and more subtle, is the vignetting. The distortion of the support post on the left is also a nice accentuation of something just a bit surreal. I'd like to see the girl's face but...that's just me. I like to see the subject. I think facial expressions can add to the mood. In this case, while I think it is a very well done image, I think you could have had more impact by showing a face with some emotion in it. Great image, though. I don't have you on my friend's list just for the kicks, y'know. I really do like your work!

	Critique By: James McGinnis  (K:6045)   2/15/2005 11:46:23 PM Beautiful Arabian! That long delicate head and face is such a classic marker on the Arabians. Simply gorgeous! I think you could have gone in two possible directions with this one. If you had picked your shutter speed up a bit you could have stopped her feet and had a really dramatic image of power. Had you gone the other way, you would have blurred the feet even more and brought out a sense of motion. This might have been a better choice because of the dust surrounding the feet. The only other suggestion would be to crop out the darker horse. Although it is in the background, I still find it to be a bit distracting. It's a nice image. I would just offer these suggestions for your consideration.
