Critique by arnit
I like the black negative space. In my opinion the lighting could have been better. The burned out hand bother me a bit because that is the first thing that I see and my eyes keep on moving to that spot. I would like to see a bit more light on his face and on the blade. Maby the whole right side of him lit. Good luck in future challanges.

Out of focus, and underexposed with severe loss of shadow detail. Not a bad idea, though.

Eerie! For the type of photograph it is, It's great!

An interesting photo, definitely appropriate for the theme. I would have liked to see the light perhaps highlighting the knife more than the hand though as the focus tends to be drawn to the washed out bit of the hand, which.

A lil' bit underexposed for my taste, but nice idea.

ack.. no.. my idea.... ok well mine was color... so obviously i like the idea. IMO there is too much grain in this shot.

Had to switch monitors to get a real good look at this shot. Very well done.

Nice job making the darkness work for you here. I also like the negative space on either side.
