This is a very good portrait. I like the composition, but I do find myself wondering how it would look as a 6x7 portrait instead of landscape...

That said, the head positioning, POV slightly below eye level, the spill of light in the background to give separation, b/w conversion and exposure are great. It's all done with subtlety, which allows a little of that authenticity to shine through from your subject.

Not sure what this is but it's pretty expressive when you let your eyes adjust to the rendering.

Fear Casts a Long Shadow

I really like the light and her expression you capture. Although there's nothing wrong with the composition, I do think I would have preferred the scene to include more of the room (i.e. zoomed out) The reason being, more shadows = more fear. However, that's just me.

Looks good, but for me it's lacking some tension. It could use some shadow play. For example, a bright flashlight shining down on the guy or a large silhouette of the guy he's being chased by might have given the image more of an edge, IMO.

That's only because Jean Luc never did get the borg lens implant.

I never would have imagine seeing a photo that reminded me of both Slippy and HCB at the same time. How did I not give this a ribbon?
