Greetings from the Critique Club
by strangeghost
COMPOSITION
Wow. Quite a strong photo with a great concept to grab DPCers' attention! I love the "in your face" centeredness because the photo is all about her being in your face. I might have considered a slightly closer crop, but I'm sure you considered that too, and went with your actual crop for good reason. The costume, the face paint and facial expression, the pose, open mouth rage, and angry sky background all make for a very compelling and strong composition. Good job.
TECHNIQUE
Very well lit with strong, sharp contrasty colors. Excellent job on the dodging and burning of the sky (is it a sky?). Technically a very strong shot.
OVERALL IMPACT
This is quite a high impact shot, IMO. So why didn't it do better (though 5.6 is a respectable score)? Like most people shots, it might have scored better if you had gotten tighter on the face, but this would clearly have made it very difficult to retain the other elements. I like it though, and hope you're happy with your work.

Certainly intense, I like the emotion. Was there anybody else around while you were doing this and did they think you were crazy? :)

ROFL. I think I'd have really grunged up the face and made it more "dirty." Fun though. Hope you had plenty of makeup remover!! Love the purple background. |
