photo24 (Sven H.) added a critique 9 months ago:
good one
what you could try: burn the outer area to guide viewer into the center.

A would ike it to be more centred, I'd crop out the empty space after the tree in the left corner.
Otherwise, a rather solid image I think.

Thanks Photo24 & Latekelem, i'll try next time to think about that :D

I love black and white images no matter what time of year. I have several black and whites from the fall where the leaves on the trees weren't very colorful and the ones on the ground were just brown and boring, so I won't fault the black and white choice here.
I do think that the lighting was a little harsh here (which might have influenced the choice of black and white as well). I think as others have said a bit of work on the contrast and some dodging and burning and a little vignetting would help to give this a focal point.

Thanks, i'll do that next !

Even if the bicycle with the child behind is not present, this photo reminds me those from Eliott Erwitt
It means that I really appreciate your photo. Great contasted B&W and great compo. Love the use of the long focal to flatten the trees!

Very nicely captured in B&W. Awesome techs and composition.....I like it!!
tzirlott (Tom Zirlott) added a critique 9 months ago:
Diezel99 has a similar scene in color. Looking at both I do like the B&W. I would like to see it shot through a red filter and down two stops. The white tree at the end is a nice touch.
bigoode said 9 months ago:
Thanks Diezel99
Thanks tzirlott, i'll think about it. It's a very interesting comment
soreks (Fedor Soreks) added a critique 9 months ago:
I have a gripe with composition: partially cropped tree on the left and space on the side of the tree to the right. Otherwise it's great.
Colors are ok, a bit more contrast would provide an enhancement.
Sonoma added a critique 8 months ago:
LOVE IT! It has a cool, snowy feel. I can't describe it. Crisp & clean. Excellent!

Thanks Soreks, checked, i'll take care next time
Thanks Sonoma, i love when we're lost in front of a pix ;-)
Shine on !

Would love to see (and probably would appreciate more) a color version of this. B&W fall images are to me like a B&W version of a rainbow. Just a preference. If you want to keep it in B&W, I"m hoping for some more contrast here - it's all just too gray. GReat image otherwise though!
