Friday Photo Critique is our weekly community project, where we publish a photograph submitted by one of our wonderful readers, then ask you all to offer constructive feedback on the image. It’s a great way to learn more about photography, express your viewpoint, and have your own image critiqued!
Quick Ground Rules
- Play nice! We’ve deliberately chosen photographs that aren’t perfect, so please be constructive with any criticism.
- Feel free to offer any type of advice – composition, lighting, post-processing etc.
- You can also link to photographs that you feel offer a great example of this type of image shot exceptionally well.
Without further ado, here is this week’s candidate for Friday Photo Critique!
The Photograph
Photo Details & Inspiration
- Nikon D3100
- 22mm
- f/3.9
- 24 seconds
- ISO 100
I took this shot behind my house on the Banana River. I wanted to capture the silky water look while shooting the sunset over the river. This was the first photo I took with the [neutral density] filter to achieve the shot without washing it out and I was very happy with the result, I hope you are too!
Photographer: Brandon Pettersen
