Since I have no one elses material to critique I'll do my own work.
This was taken on my way to work and although I will praise my self for making the decision to stop and grab the shot. Stomp through mud as I was on my way to make other people look pretty as a makeup aritst. Besides liking the dichotomy of it, I was in heaven out there with the fog, dew, mud and beams of light. However, this shot needs just a little more width. Don't ya think? One way of looking at it is that it leaves the viewer wanting more, the other way is that it was rushed and yes it was. Dramatic as it is it needs more depth of field. The cattails infront should be in focus as well and they could have been had I took a few minutes more to put the camera on manual and opened up the aperture.....So, Lesson, take your time....be all there and conscious when doing any kind of art work. This could have been truly spectacular instead of just another pretty snapshot.
