Critiquing Photo Challenge

I think this was my most successful image because I like how the pattern of the tablecloth works to fill the negative space of the image without making it feel too overcrowded or overpowering the subject. I also like how the red and white found throughout the image compliment one another. The most challenging aspect of this challenge for me was the interpretive photo, making a ambiguous image is not my strong suit and it took me the longest to come up with a subject and scene. Next photo challenge I want to try my hand more with landscapes and special effects/filters.

My Comment(Jazhira Parada):

I love your theoretical image and the incredible idea of taking a picture of the reflection in water rather than the scene on its own and the way it makes the light have a unique look. I also love the way the lighting through the windows creates more depth on the pillar and accentuates the textures in the image. My only critique would be push the reflection in water point more, maybe by having some light hitting the water directly or have a ripple? Otherwise I love the photo!
