I wish the red chair wasn't so saturated. Other than that it's great.

I get the feeling that the author wanted the chair to be extremely severe and shocking, and it is.

I like the tones and the portrayal of sheer squalor and destruction and neglect.

I would suggest that it is first an architectural shot and with that in mind, I would prefer to see the lines be all properly lined up with the vertical and the horizontal.

In my opinion, it would have been so easy to get that right, and it served no purpose to have it cock-eyed.

It is a very moving and dramatic work that only falls a little short of being great!

Congratulations!

I like how the chair is the only one that has vivid color to it. it really draws attention to it and contrasts it to the rest of the 'building'. The contrast effect would be much stronger if the chair had been in better condition (not that it was within your control). My only critique would be to set up the shot so there's more context to it. Let the picture tell a story. What happened here? whats with the chair? etc....


A560 will have to do... for now :confused:
