Keep it up! |

This is an absolutely wonderful entry, and both a blessing and a curse for your first shot out of the gate.
Know now that you *can* do this, so take heart, but always keep this in mind *when* you get smacked around by the voters in the future.
For the record, I gave this a 9 'cause I thought this was a spectacular entry!
Good luck in future challenges and welcome to The Coliseum!!! |

Now I've finally got something photography related to put on the resume:)

| Good idea. I saw another that looked much like this. Other than motionless vs blurred motion she does not stand out from the others as much as the other photo and I don't see the hopelessness. She looks like she has a lot going for her. |

|
|
|
12/04/2007 03:22:15 AM |
| nice hand held shot, I am guess around and 1/8 sec shutter. I may have cropped a little bit off the top, maybe just below the fan. |

| Nicely done. Great Idea that is well executed |
|
|
|
12/03/2007 09:29:30 AM |
| I'm surprised this idea wasn't used more for this challenge. Having the subject stand still for a long exposure in the middle of people traffic is my first idea of "alone in a crowd". Tehcnically this is good, although I don't care aesthetically for the blue-steel look. |
|
|
|
12/02/2007 09:04:18 PM |
| This is the technique I was going to use if I had time to enter this challenge. I think the subject would look more alone if she was not looking at the camera. I wonder what it would look like to use this concept looking down on the model (like looking down on her in a mall lobby or an airport from the the next floor above). Nice job. I was hoping to see a picture like yours. |

"This photo has been validated."
I wonder why the request for this one to be validated? Very nice long exposure here. And based on what i've seen so far, this should do well! 10 |

| Finally someone that has a good take on the challenge. This is my exact definition of Alone in a Crowd. Everyone else just didn't get it. This to me does. Well done. Great movement. Love the tone, and composition. 10 from me. |

| great message, great shot... very well conveyed |
|
|
|
11/30/2007 03:15:11 AM |
| I think this image gets its strength from the light--its so cold and harsh and...institutional, and that empasizes the emotion of the girl to great effect. |

| classic concept, but well executed. like the light and colors and the expresssion. lacks of sharpness distract but probably inherent to mode of shooting.good composition, draws you immediately to subject. 8 |
|
|
|
11/29/2007 04:25:36 PM |
| This is really well done. Such a surreal look to it....haunting and evocative. 9 |
|
|
|
11/29/2007 02:35:19 PM |
The people are all blurry!!! - 1
That was a joke, BTW :) Although I wish the main subject was a bit sharper. |

|

|
11/28/2007 11:23:21 AM |
| Wow...what a great shot! This type of image is quite common but you've done an exceptional job of portraying your subject being detached from the motion around her. Further, the color is really well done. The florescent lights have no green cast and the image has a cold, sterile cast. Again...well done! |
|

| Great shot! I love her expression, it really feels like she is alone. I like everything about it. 10. This one should be in the top 10 for sure. |
|
|
|
11/28/2007 10:56:32 AM |
| The blueish tone really gives a "Hopelessness" look to the picture. She really looks "invisible" to everyone around her.... Who hasn't had that feeling in highschool? |
|

I smell a winner. I thought this shot was REALLY good. It's a bit like ones in the past but with a twist. This is really an outstanding shot. Good luck
10 |

11/28/2007 08:28:31 AM |
| Very nice, looks like you and someone else had the same idea, but I prefer the more dramatic lighting in your scene |
|
|
|
11/28/2007 07:35:53 AM |
| Nice composition. I'd expect this kind of composition to be appear in this challenge. Nice try. |

| very nice and fitting to the theme |
|

11/28/2007 03:04:53 AM |
Yes now this is what I had in mind too.
Damn I should have tried harder.
Excellent shot... maybe I'd like to see a little more or her or less. Here its a little bit in the middle. |

| I typically don't comment on photos that I'm sure will ribbon only because the photographer probably knows what the did right and don't need me to tell them. But WOW...great shot! You've got some stiff competitions with the studio shots but this should be front page all the way. |
