Thanks for the comment!

If I may make a comment:

There's nothing to be sorry about when offering a critique. I like receiving any form of objective, honest criticism of a photo. :-)

I have been posting a picture or two every other day and seeing people's reactions to them. Some of the reactions are complimentary, some are not. Sometimes the responses surprise me, either way.

Often times, I plan for these photos to be part of a show or set where they have context in presentation. Seen that way, the story they present is quite different from a standalone photo. But since you're not seeing the show or set together in that context, the statement that one might "...sort of tell a story..." makes perfect sense, and provides some key information about how the photo ought to be presented if I think it's good enough for the job.

It's an interesting image, but it just doesn't have a compelling composition. It sort of tells a story
but not well enough. Sorry.

Not quite a PAW shot, but I like the textures and the "skew-ness" of everything in this photo. It seems a photo of a world where nothing quite lines up exactly. From an evening in Liverpool ...
