1. in what area is critique to be sought?
Composition
2. what one hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
To make use of the lines in the sand, leading to the silhouette, emphasised by the sun above
3. under what circumstance is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
Picture is taken during sunrise during low tide at Changi beach using 18-55mm kit lens; contrast adjustment. No croppin' just resized.
4. what the critique seeker personally thinks of the picture
I wasnt looking into the viewfinder for this shot, but I had roughly anticipated the couple to walk along the beach up to the point where the sun is almost directly above them. I believe my objective spelt out in #2 has been met.
