This shot looks a little jagged, as though it was either compressed too much or over-sharpened. The composition would be stronger if the model's hand wasn't cut off by the edge of the frame.

stands out from the pack. I wish the fingers weren't cut off!

Why am I interested in a mean guy? Not enough to keep me looking.

Toddhead? Sweet! Those teeth do come in handy eh? I like the lighting for this shot! Great detail and the expression on your face is stunning!

This is kind of scary but I like it. I think him and the girl that is crawling toward the camera should get together.:) I hope this does well. Good luck.

Very original and dark. Slightly over sharpened around fingers and face. Good use of shadows. Good luck!

The lighting is good, but the pose and the look on the face makes this picture a little creepy for me.You cropped a little too close on one hand because the fingers are cut off. Nice creativity, but just not very appealing to me personally.

freakish...but well done

Nicely done!

Nice use of lighting to create a mood. Knuckle shadows and fingernail reflections are a bit distracting though, might try dodging and burning.

A very cool, scary image. great lighting, adds to this photo very much. 8

Nice lighting, very dramatic. I think a crop shifted down a tad to include the left-hand fingers is in order. Good use of shadows and excellent expression on the model's face. Well done!

Love the idea and the pose, but the facial expression and makeup just doesn't quite make the illusion for me. I envision a more gruesome and evil expression and a more tempting and beautiful pose. Perhaps a little more light would help. Still, a very strong entry. (I think I know whose work this is, but am not sure - I'm anxious to see if I'm right. Don't worry - it's a compliment either way!)

Quite cool. Scary. The idea is interesting and the lighting is nice. Unfortunatly, the imagine is rather soft and i would've wished for more light on the back of the model, to show more muscles. Composition is good, but framing is not. The figures being cut is unfortunate and takes a lot away from the figure. A slightly larger frame could've helped on this matter as well. Nice work! 7

Nasty.
Seems out of focus, and the cropped hand detracts from the image
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/23/2005 07:45:12 AM
not sre what the point of an ugly face in a nude, but I guess I missed it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Great concept. Very good use of lighting and editing, the feel of the image conveys your idea nicely. Only minor nitpick, I wish the left hand wasn't cut off in the framing. Very good job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/23/2005 12:51:26 AM
Good concept and the pose is more than likely perfect. The problem is I can't see much of the picture because there is to much contrast. Most of the picture is dark and his face seems unnaturally light. It is worth reshooting, imo, with a different light set up.

Well done technically, but boring compositionally. 6.

Very disturbing!!!! Joey, are you responsible for this one!?!?!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/22/2005 09:10:15 PM
This is a great shot, the lighting leaves a bit too much darkness, but that is likely what you were going for here. I doin't really like the facial expression, and think I could have gotten behind it a bit better if the lighting lit the face a bit better.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/22/2005 04:22:55 PM
Wish I could see a bit more detail in the body/buttocks/back area.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/22/2005 02:38:42 PM
this is creepy. The teeth especially look animal-esque. The lighting is fine and dandy, but the crop is too tight. I woiuld have liked to see him creeping more towards the camera.
Just a tip on tiny details, for a male it compliments a nude to remove all jewelery (wedding band) especial in a situation like this where you are trying to displace the less than human aspects of the model.

This shot looks downright evil to me, but that really gives it an impact. The harsh lighting helps with the scary expression and pose.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/22/2005 03:17:06 AM
cool, freaky shot. (you know, halloween is approaching :-p)
i think its original, the lighting is good, only complaint would be part of the shot seem a bit overprocessed (neat image+blurring+sharpning) and are begining to fall apart... for example on both hands there is some form of pixelation and sharpening artifacts on the outlines around the wrists and fingers.

I guess there's gotta be some like this in every bunch. I am not big on this style, but there are plenty who are, so good luck to you.

great lighting - and i really think that the lighting will make the top photos in this challenge.8

WOAH! Spooky, very 1920's horror feeling in this shot. Good job!
