1976, USA: The Bicentential

This would be interesting if there were more negative space, as cropped, the dark center of the bell (with no detail) is too prominent, and the maroon color in the border seems to come from nowhere (no link to the image). If you were trying for Red, White, and Blue the colors are off.

Off centered is a DPC fav, but the backdrop is just too dark considering the subject is black.

Best Picture 1974 - The Godfather Part II

I usually don't complain about wrinkled sheets as backdrops (sometimes they add texture), but for me, you may have gotten away with this one if the sheet crossed all the way to the left frame, I realize cropping his hand out wasn't an option but the left side becomes a big distraction from the well-posed subject. This idea has a lot of potential for a reshoot (maybe lose the backlighting on the right too). Good Luck 7

Unique idea to represent "where it all started".

Seams? or Seam Free? Nylons: 1955

Could be right out of a 1955 Sears Roebuck catalog. The added grain does an effective job of reminding me of older newspaper print. I love the stockings, the retro-looking foot stool, and the overall composition of this image, although, the model's position looks a bit forced, as though you are looking UP just a bit too much.

I like the addition of the "shaking hands" to this winning portrait.

Fun piece of trivia, like the way you created the image.

Love the worn look of the leather, lederhosen? Unfortunately the blue cast on the lighter clothing is not quite right, maybe desat the blue just a bit.

Like the viewpoint and the backdrop is a perfect compliment, the little specks of dust on the car actually help show it's age. BAM!
