CRITIQUE CLUB CRITIQUE
by karmat
This is too freakin' hilarious. It's scary, in a funny kinda way, and definitely looks like a good birthday card.
I really like the bw you have chosen to use, and the shadows help to add to the comical/scary effect. The expression on the face (especially with the big "X" shadow across the eyes/nose is priceless) the exposure is good and the focus works for me.
The only thing I think that may detract from the overall effect is what you have chosen to use as a border. Obviously, it *should* not effect the picture, but in this case, it makes the actual picture smaller than it could have been. Also, all the "white" around the picture draws the eyes (and thus viewer's attention) away from the shot. While I assume that you are going for the "card" look, it may have been helpful to "drive" the viewers' eyes to the picture not away from it.
Good work, and best to you in future challenges.

| Kind of a fun image, but the huge white (and un even) border seems a bit distracting. |

| Apparently you messed up the border, but the picture is pretty good. I'm a fan of the picture. |

| ROFL. So glad to see another funny birthday one. Mine is getting lambasted but at least your guy is blowing out candles. This is really funny and almost looks like it was taken in the 60's. I love the glasses. The lighting and shadow isn't "good photography" particularly, but works for this whimsical shot. Really fun. Thanks for the chuckle. 7 |

| Nice humor, I may have nightmares tonight. I think just the picture without the white card area would have been fine. |
