1. in what area is critique to be sought?
I would appreciate any C&C on composition, exposure as well as any other ways this picture can be improved upon. (Should I crop anything? Or perhaps any PP that will improve the picture?)
2. what one hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
The feeling of someone walking into the sunset, identical to those movies where the lead character walks off into the sunset at the end. I was also trying to create a warm type of feeling that one gets when walking in the evening sun.
3. under what circumstance is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
This photograph was taken when I was taking an evening walk with my wife and my dogs which you can see in the picture. I was trying to take a picture of the setting sun but I noticed my wife and the long shadows created the opportunity for this shot.
4. what the critique seeker personally thinks of the picture
Personally, I like how the railings that start from the bottom of the picture leads the eyes to my wife. In addition, the road on the right gives an illusion of depth as they lead off toward the sun making it seem as if my wife is walking into the sunset. Last but not least, I tried to compose this image using the golden triangle rule, with the three parts consisting of the sea, the sun and the road my wife is walking on.
Thanks for viewing!
