Please Critique for the #319 Glass......

I think I got the subject, but what do you think...my favorite is the 1st one, as I just like the framing of the shot and and to see in the background the two Workers making small talk is priceless!

I think they are all well-captured, beautfiully processed, rich looking images taken in an interesting location. My main thought is how much do each of these images say Glass and not too much else.
While I like the men talking, I actually think it takes away from the assignment goal.
Second is another beautiful image to be proud of, but I think the left third is extraneous. Love the repetitive elements. Im not sure others would identify it as about glass.
Third feels most focussed on the subject but I think also needs a tighter crop and the red object must go!
I think my choice would be to use the first, croping from the left, clipping a corner of the keyboard.
Good luck.

Scott

All nice.
I like the second best and the subject is clearer. Last image is quite nice as well.
I like your processing (or camera settings).

Josh,

As Scott has said, I'd agree all images are well captured and processed - I prefer the irony of the last - don't know if cropping a bit of the overhead lights would add or take away from the image.

Good luck with the assignment...

Thanks for all the feedback!

I did try a crop on the last pic to take away the lights...but it didn't seem to work for my eye..

Thanks Again.
Josh
