Congratulations on your top twenty finish. Very impressive and gives the viewer something to think about.

Congratulations Kevin on 12th place;) Personally I think this should have placed much higher.

A really nice narrative image. 10

Great idea. Love the colors and lighting. Wrong hair do but other than that - excellent. 9

You've captured a haunting image which would easily convey 1941. Bravo.

Best I've seen so far. def a top 10!
Good job with the lighting and the cool tones, i think the mood you set is very effective and the photo is deep on many levels. 9

Great photo, a lot of elements to tell the story. Perhaps a bit bright on the body, but on he other hand the bright whiteness works well as a dead body's skin color.

7 - Met the Challenge (for me, a photo of this put in a time capsule for this year would depict the era/feel for future generations). Criticism; whilst I do like the color treatment, and also that you have retained the colors rather than gone for the sepia or b/w, for me I find, especially the seemingly oversized uniform (and no trousers?) a little detracting from the overall picture. Perhaps if that 'subject' were not so sharp, or well lit, not sure, but may have made this a better photograph in my opinion. Perhaps it is a 'story' being told here, that includes the surrounding objects like the bike, and what looks like an overturned pram(?) not sure, but I am fairly certain it is a 'moment in time' at a 'historical event' in an 'era' (40's) that you are capturing and I think you have succeeded in that, if I am correct in that interpretation. I can see you have made a lot of effort here and it shows in your shot. I like the texture capture on the walls, etc too and the 'darkness' around them at the top.

FInally! Someone who followed directions, used the year for the title and submitted a GOOD photo. You deserve a 10!

Great photo that really seems as dark as it's subject matter. Very well done shot. 10

Not sure what's going on here, but it certainly is a photo that grabs your attention.
08/11/2005 09:21:29 PM
Hauntingly beautiful.
08/11/2005 12:13:11 PM
a bit too dark to me
08/11/2005 12:11:07 PM
I really like this picture a lot, however it appears that the highlights on the face and legs are slightly blown.
08/11/2005 06:04:58 AM
Nice period piece. Excellent lighting and composition.
08/10/2005 07:29:14 PM
awesome shot...i give it a 9...if it were aged with black and white or sepia, 10
08/10/2005 06:20:50 PM
Nice drama...a very captivating image...the contrast and "darkness" only enhance the idea...well done.
08/10/2005 12:36:02 PM
Wow, real nice, but I'm sure you knew that.
08/10/2005 11:07:55 AM
I assume to recognize the style...very authentic setup. well done
08/10/2005 10:35:13 AM
A good photo. For the most part I like the composition and lighting. The light is a bit harsh on the person. This could have had more impact if the person looked a little more worn out and worse for wear. Some dirt and grime on the face, legs and feet would have helped in this matter.
