The
points of interest (the swimmers) are in the top half of the image. The lights
are exposed so that they don’t take away from the swimmers.

The
red/orange color of the sunset draws the eye to the swimmers. I like how the
water looks, clear in the front of the image, then progressively getting
darker. The swimmers get smaller as they go back in line, creating a line to
lead the eye through the image. I like how they all have their own space. I
wish the last swimmer wasn’t intersecting with the fence behind him.
The
picture is nicely contrasted. The different swim suits add variety as well as
having the setting of the pool. The repeating pattern of the plus sign on the
side of the pool adds harmony.

Conceptual Skill
|
I
like how the photographer was able to capture the different techniques of the
swimmers entering the water and how he was able to get the water droplets
coming off their bodies.
|
Critique
|
I
really like the contrast in this image
and the micro composition between the swimmers.
