Sir, i think it is a bit too crowded to keep the subject distinct.

[nokinnikon]

Oh really, why is that?

[Wavelength]

I think i have mentioned the cause and its effect already. may be that's me.....

[nokinnikon]

Well you haven't. You haven't said anything. How differently would you do it?
Explain how you would improve its ' distinctness'? back up what you say. Cause and effect? We are are not discussing synchronicity here. How differently would you convey to the viewer it's context, metaphors and structure?

I like it a lot. I find it very interesting and candid.

[nokinnikon]

Thank you, the surreal oddities contained within lend weight to its structure.

The caption of the image suggests the subject to be "Castle and curtain"' but the attention of the viewer will go to the two people in the foreground, the curtain and the castle automatically becomes secondary. Human element, especially when presented in the foreground becomes the default attention point. The tip of those boats and bushes in the foreground are chocking within the frame altogether.

Don't take it so serious; different people will have different tastes; that is all. I am not a person finding fault with all images posted by others; yourself know that, i appreciated your other image, because i really like it; or are you of the temperament who never wants to be criticized?

I am no stranger to criticisms, critiques etc. For the last 31 years I've gave, received constructive criticisms from some of the best. What I was subtly suggesting to you was to back up what you wrote, context. There is no choking, it flows quite freely, boats, rocks that you see are subtle metaphors. You have to read stuff like as if it were a tarot card. Okay, why do you think it's called castle and curtain, this is a small nudge...
