portfolio Circumference of a Circle - Washington Circle in the snow

Crop this square?

Great! Just tiny bit too much foreground...

love the picture

Excellent!!

I really like this! Beautiful!

What a great picture! As is typical of snow..it creates a very somber peaceful looking environment. I really enjoy looking at this. NICE job!

This is a very strong photograph. I really like the composistion, and the exposure seems perfect.

like fractal

great contrast! maybe a bit too much white off to the left

Great composition and visually very attractive

Wow.....lot's of comments! I have to admit that I just didn't read the previous comments so if this has been said before, I apologise. First of all, I am extremely impressed with the detail of both the white snow and black benches (my....aren't you brave). I really like the composition and lighting. I only think to make this great image even better, that you could crop in a little tighter to the benches (alot off the left and a little off the bottom). Nice work!

I truly like the composition and this is very well exposed for I know how difficult it can be to get the right greys and blacks with all that snow around. Just one small thing: I would have given it a bit more headroom. The object top right is, IMO, too close to the frame. Very nice! Grees,

Great composition

Absolutely beautiful. Too bad, though, you can't find the negative :-)

A nice simple and pleasing repetition of form. The snow is perfectly white and yet has some texture to it.

Amazing photograph! Very original. Technically perfect. Excellent contrast. Perfect use of patterns. DOF is awesome. I can actually SEE the texture of the snow itself! This is prize winning material. Don't change a thing!!

i like this alot. simple, yet comfortable to look at. good work =)

wonderful idea! Very well shot too!

I like!

lovely lovely lovely lovely lovely

Nice overall, but the snow on the front bench looks blown out.

The arch is great, quite playful.

very nice,

I saw this picture and wanted to comment on it immediately! I was well and truly beaten to that.

 

Commenting on this photo is not easy. It is such a good photo that it is unfair to give it any criticism. That said, you have asked for a critique.

 

The space to the left does not please me. However cropping the space out does not enhance the photograph. The only way to make this 'perfect' would be to shoot it from a different position. Comments have been made that shooting it from further right would have improved this. I have a tendency to agree but I am not 100% sure as the feeling of the 'Circle' might be lost.

 

Would saying, "It is brilliant but there is something wrong with it." be fair criticism?

 

Thanks for posting this!

Wow! Great. Love the contrast between the black / almost black benches and the snow.
