One Small Statue :)

Hi, going forward on my photography venture I stopped and clicked another shot. Can you please review it and let me know what exactly is missing for it to reach position Perfect?

The image was clicked via Samsung Galaxy Note 2.

Thanks in advance

Hi Raj,

Welcome to the CiC forums from me, great to have you join us

There are two things I'd like to improve if shooting this; lighting and background.

I get the impression you were shooting from under cover, as is the statue, and there's a kind of 'not front lit' appearance to it which has resulted in some deep shadows in the surfaces that aren't upwards facing. You could perhaps, with a standard PP program, dodge these (I don't know what facilities your Samsung may have though).

Regarding the background; it is commendably blurred (although you missed a bit under the armpit), but an even 'plainer' one would distract less, simply shutting the doors would have helped.

That's probably enough to be going on with, which I hope is helpful.

Cheers,
