You know this may be your best image.
I can't believe the rating 333/485 - I guess that there is not sufficient immediate punch to get the raters to stop and appreciate and so gets a very quick 'average' 5.
It deserved to finish much higher.

Shame on you. This is too good and too much minimalism. Do not try to pull such artistic stunts ever again.

This was my favorite in the challenge and should IMO rank in the top 10.
Keep up the good work.

Beautiful color. If I saw this in a gallery, I would ask if the artist had a version with the fabric stretching the length of the frame, but I still find this a strong and dramatic piece. There are a few lines or wrinkles in the fabric that distracted me just the slightest amount, but I suppose they give it abit of character. Good work.

This is minimalistic, but the challenge description did state that you should have the subject occupy only a small portion of the image.

fits quite well, imho, with the challenge theme, although no doubt some philistine would have said to you that this is too big to be minimal. bah. I like the way the light falls on the yellow, as well as some of the visible texturing on that cloth. 8, but bumping to 9 to overcompensate.

an unusual picture, cant grasp what this is? lacking somewhat in compostition
05/02/2005 03:27:53 AM
nice and i guess it's minimal, but not in the way it was phrased in this challenge.
05/01/2005 08:16:21 PM
I like your picture but I'm not sure if it satisfies the theme.
04/30/2005 08:43:25 PM
Good lighting. Original picture with good composition. However, I am getting bored with flat black background. 6

Great! creating motion, contrast, depth and a beautiful sight, with so little as a yellow curtain. This really does justice the theme

Meets challenge discription....................................0
Meets definition of Minimalism................................10
Technical................................................................9 some artifacts or noise
Artistic....................................................................10 I like this image. It speak of hang cloth in the simplist of terms......color works nicely with the black.

Average score.............................7

I like the contrast and the colors of the picture, but the focus of the picture seems to take up more of the frame than minimalist goal of the challenge. 5

Doesn't qualify under the terms of the challenge, but otherwise good lighting.
04/29/2005 08:43:56 PM
back ground minimal, focus item takes up too much space.
04/29/2005 02:36:06 PM
Lovely lighting and contrast of black & gold. I'm not familiar with the meaning of the title.
04/29/2005 03:04:33 AM
very elegant composition and lighting, but not wuite small to fit the description of the challenge
04/29/2005 02:25:21 AM
I like the colours. I think your pic needs something more to be special. Good luck.
04/28/2005 08:05:06 PM
This is a great texture photo, and I love the separation from thje background
04/28/2005 06:43:13 PM
Nice shot, good lighting, but minimalist?
04/28/2005 05:54:19 PM
Not sure I understand this photo.
04/28/2005 01:52:50 PM
Excellent light and good simple rendering of this yellow curtain. The subtle texture evident of the moiré fabric of the cloth and detail in the hem is very good. Enjoyable composition.
04/28/2005 03:54:43 AM
nice colour on this image and detail
04/27/2005 06:55:45 PM
Yes, I like the mood in this. Brilliant lighting and bold composition. Fits the minimalism category perfectly for me. -10
04/27/2005 02:37:55 PM
I don't find any minimalism here, sorry
04/27/2005 01:49:28 PM
I think I would have cropped the bottome third fo the image.
04/27/2005 01:22:41 PM
nice, but I would have had the yellow run all the way through the shot so it would imply what it was rather then stating it. 9
04/27/2005 01:40:45 AM
think image takes up too much of area...
04/27/2005 12:10:02 AM
Excellent, true minimalist photograph, but not a small part of the image.
