Greetings from the Critique Club Anna:
First off, I added you to my favs list because I realize I neglected to add you before. You are easily one of the best photographers on the site (in my opinion).
On to your photoâ€Â¦ I think it’s perfectly done for what you were going for. The lighting is perfect, the props are great and I like that you have the marker there by your hand (Green Day rocks BTW). And what a great idea! The photo definitely gives the mood of a love struck teenager separated from their love. The writing is like random thoughts, the differences in size shade and capitalization also makes it seem more random, really giving the photo that emotional touch. But a permanent marker? Ouch, I bet it was fun removing. Next time just use a washable marker and use the permanent one as a prop :)
While it̢۪s not a traditional greeting card with flowers or puppies, I do think it fits the challenge well and personally I like it better then the flowers and puppies. I don̢۪t shop for cards very often, but I know in the last few years cards like this are starting to pop up. Sending a card like this to someone would really get your message across.
Great job as usual. I always look forward to your next submission. |

Congrats on another high place. I knew this was yours as I recognized the jeans and belt from a few of your other shots (the gas mask one). |

I actually had a feeling that was you. I gave you a 9 and figured it would ribbon? Nice work again! |

This is super imaginative and I like it VERY much. My main complaint would be all of the "props." The Green Day album, pen, portable phone, etc don't really add to the shot. I mean, they probably refer to the person specifically that you miss, but for the general buying public, I think no props at all, other than maybe something that denotes missing a person on a more generic level. Does that make sense? Since all of the words are kind of busy and your eye is reading them, maybe no belt on the jeans too. It might be kind of schmaltzy, but maybe holding an empty Valentine candy box, or a picture frame turned away from the viewer, so you just see the back of it. Just me rambling and thinking out loud here. The shadows and ligh tare excellent. The placement of the figure's torso to the far left works well too, Without all of the props, there would be more negative space, which would give it more of a lonely feeling in my opnion. Have her laying on grass instead of the rug too like she's outside day dreaming of the person she is missing. Hope all of this is helpful. You certainly have a great eye for detail and the composition is good - just maybe a few less things would work for me. GOOD LUCK 7 |

I like this a lot... I might have gone without a couple of the items on the right, though. I think the Green Day album, etc., could have probably been left out and it would have still been just as effective. |

I like the shot. The unringing phone, and the appropriate music included improves it also. |
