Untitled Figure Study

Beautiful & evocative, love the shadows & texture - but I wish there was more interest as far as the facial expression goes. Colors/exposure also seem to go askew around the face which is bothersome to me. Nice composition & gorgeous model, though! - 7

Handsome subject - but he's a bit soft as far as focus goes. Good luck!

Diagonal connection is strong, but for me the image is a little lacking in impression. The flames are nice, but the globs of white completely detract from them which makes me look down & to the right for more to see but I'm met with black void. I'm pretty much a newbie here, though, so take my comments with a grain of salt - just 'cause I'm being critical doesn't mean I think MY stuff is doing any better! You'll likely lap my submission... Good luck!

Cute little one - but a stronger angle would have suited the challenge better. Also, a little sharpening overall would have helped & I think I would have liked this better in b&w with a healthy serving of contrast adjustment.

A tad overexposed, focus is soft & not the most flattering of locale, either.

Perspective is a little lacking in creativity. I think it would have been better if you had gotten up close & more toward the front of the bike, taking advantage of the reflections all that chrome has to offer and getting less of the parking lot, shopping carts & pavement stains.

Soft & little noisy compared to the other moon entries. I like your composition more, though...

A little boring in set-up & composition. Doesn't evoke a whole lot from me - could have been helped greatly by more dramatic lighting, IMHO. Nice focus & exposure, though!

Kinda dark - makes me search for the texture & interest. A little PP playing (what's legal for this challenge anyway - contrast, color, sharpening, etc.) would have gotten you more mileage, I think. 'Diagonal' connection is strong, but not compelling enough on its own without help from what it is composed of, IMHO.

Going Green!

Selective color has gotten pretty cliché - plus I feel this would have been more interesting if the challenge instructions had been followed more spiritedly. A dutch angle here would have brought a lot more to the party.

Good luck!

Seems a bit pointless.... (ha ha, get it?) I'm pretty much a newbie here, though, so take my comments with a grain of salt - just 'cause I'm being critical doesn't mean I think MY stuff is doing any better! Good luck!
