I liked what you did, it was just that there was a little too much (intentional?) camera shake .

I feel that it would have worked better as just silhoettes, so lens stopped right down to like f/2 or f/1.x, then focused either on the foreground or to infinity and then they would be hazy but recognisable silhoettes. Camera shake, IMO, can look amateur if over or under done. Very hard to get right to get a arty feel. Having said all that, it was still a good photo, just have to bear in mind there is a lot of other amazing photographers in here haha

just my 2c

Hey mate, don't be disheartend by getting 0 votes. I only got 1. Photography, like art is all about subjective interpretation.

These competitions are more about getting people out there, taking shots they are proud of (Y)

That's why I said I look forward for the next one!
