Great! Thanks for giving an idea of photographic art that can score well! Really glad to know that's possible. :)

Great idea. Only the strange color balance keeps me from giving it a very high score. There appears to be some glare on the top right corner, and you could have easily cloned out the Kodak logo on the print, but it's still a very expressive portrait. 7

This would have been great if you were behind the B&W copy... Unless I'm mistaken that's a colour pic behind? Great idea though... 6

great concept.. but the white balance seems to be out of whack... I have never seen the back of photo paper look so yellow

The girl behind the tear. The end result has been well achieved and you have my admiration. Bumping up.

real nice 7 from me

The thumbnail makes me yearn for more. There is a red cast to the color portion of the 'submission' display that undoes the impact of the graphic for me. Had the pic been entirely in sepia/bw, my personal opinon is that it would have been much stronger message. Nonetheless, nice work.

great effect. a little soft on the focus and I'd prefer the tonal range to be a bit wider but this is a very eye catching shot in any event.

Sweet! ;) Love that Idea, used it 10 years ago to make some posters of my band when we were playing around! :)

I get the feeling you are trying to say you are ripped apart, torn apart inside. Very creative. 8

cool idea but the colors seem a bit odd ....
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/15/2005 12:27:35 AM
Though I've seen something similar before, it's a great idea. Unfortunately, the color beneath seems a bit drab. I'm assuming it's two pictures layered one over the other. Taking that third picture has the effect of flattening out any depth you had in the original picture.

nice border...good color technique...I like this

Very Clever! White Balance is off. In Photoshop Try clicking the white eye-dropper in Curves on the white paper and the picture should be better.

Very cool and perfectly aligned. Nice catchlights as well.

Nice work. I take it you liked e301's "What is the Matrix?" entry :)

Wow, what a great idea! I like the label proving that it's photo paper, but most of all, the whole shot is bizarre in a good way. This must have taken some time.

if this was black & white it would be a 8 here, but the colors totally ruins it for me. 5

Wow! This is extremely creative. It feels a bit out of focus in the "exposed" area, or perhaps slightly overexposed, Also, excellent use of the frame - no dead space; It's all put to good use and very well balanced. I'd like to see a bit more contrast, but have to give you two thumbs up for a GREAT idea which was executed wonderfully!
