This is a tough shot. I like that you are experimenting and not afraid to try some stuff. This is a real balancing act between having too much detail (and ruining the effect) and having too little (and making for a boring picture). I'd probably like to see a bit more detail or at least a bit more contrast. I'd also compose the shot with the negative space in front of the face and not behind it. I think it would be more appealing that way (even a centered composition might work). I gave it a 4 in the challenge and I think the biggest reason was there just wasn't enough to hold my interest. Keep being creative though, it's a tough thing to do, and it will come with some lumps, but it will make you a better photographer in the end. |

A bit too dark to see the mood of the person. |

Might be interesting. But it's just too dark to see much at all. |

Wow. That is very cool and different. Very well done. I love it. |

I think it has potential, but it is just too dark. |

I really liked this idea, only I feel it could have been technically done better - sharper, with a better framing (the face to the right or cropped vertically); I don't like the faintly visible portion of neck |

Conveys a "blue mood" well. It's a bit too dark, although it does compel the viewer to take a closer look. |

I like the concept, but having a bit more of the face visible would have been helpful to me. |

I like the sublety of lighting and the expression of the face. I don't think *that* much empty space in the frame is justified: I would have cropped tighter. 9 |

It looks a bit out of focus |
