Ghost Town

Judges Comments

This is the sort of character scene you come across in the backblocks and can just see a character photo. Unfortunately we don't
see the fencing and the garbage bin that really mar the image. That being said, cloning out the fencing and bin is a possibility.
But what we really want is a highlight to direct the eye rather than make us search among the rubble for something interesting.
Plus, we need a sky that's not quite so bland. Remember we are trying to say something, so the visual vocabulary we use is important.
Is the sky blue because it was like that or because we designed it that way? Did we cut the window of the hotel off
and include a bit of umbrella on purpose? The difference is important. Remember, we are crafting an image not shooting a holiday snap.
