Critiquing one another s work often gives you a perspective on your own photography that you might not have considered before. As photographers, we often get so invested in what we re doing that we fail to see some small things that can make a photo better. If another person can point this out to us, it can lead to some improvements in our work.

Be prepared to receive advice that you don't like, or don't agree with. If you receive what you think is bad comment, first think about the comment from their point of view. They may well just have a point. However, if you still don't agree, be polite and respectful or better don't reply. Never get into an arguing match with someone who doesn't share your opinion of your photo. It is, after all, only an opinion and everyone is entitled to their own.

I think you wanted the focus of this picture to be the pumpkin. However, there is far too much other space. My eye keeps going to that big expanse of the blue wall. Maybe try cropping about half of the wall. Play with cropping.

I arrived at the Crystal Bay Farm in Watsonville, Ca. when a couple ladies put the finishing touches on their decorative homage to the Great Pumpkin.

Nice. One suggestion would be to crop out the shadow on the left side. You then might have to crop some from the right for balance.

Nice. Try cropping out that dark rectangle on the top. It is distracting.

Try cropping way down. No need for sky at all. Cut most of the road out, too.Then the eye will go to the pumpkin, your subject.

That bright area is so very over exposed hat it detracts from the center pumpkin. Nothing much you can do about it now. Keep it in mind for next time.

Make more symmetrical by cropping off some of top, left, and bottom to match right side. Otherwise, very good.

GloriaKeller, LOL. That actually describes her perfectly. She rode this bike from Canada to Mexico all alone!

CarlaAtFanime, I'm chuckling about your cropping comments because I typically crop my images tightly. For this assignment, I was given specific format criteria and the need to include the area for context. Thanks for your comments.
