First Impression
The first thing I noticed about this photo was the excellent use of rule of thirds and a strong composition with the lines slanted and triangles in the top and bottom of the photo. The title is good and I can see the dangerous aspect of the photo with the harness and safety lines on the worker.
Things to help your score
I think this photo has very little impact on a viewer that is looking at 200 plus photos. Especially in a challenge like Negative image where the viewer is looking to see something they would normally not see in an image. I think most viewers looked at it and so no major flaws with meeting the challenge or PP but did not see anything thing to make them vote higher or impact them to leave more comments. I am not sure how this would have looked in a color negative but I think it may have done better with abit more color in the image. Although I can see that there must be some danger with saftey lines attached to the worker, to show the dangerous element more in the photo it would have been nice by showing how high up the person is off the ground or what they are working on.
Post Processing
The image looks well balanced through out the tonal range, and even though the top right was possibly blown out in the original it seems to work when converted to negative. It is difficult to say what could have been done better in your PP without any comments on how you got where you are. A suggestion for when asking for a critique is to put as much detail into your comments about your image as possible.
Conclusion
I think the score on this image was really affected by the subject matter and that it was hard for the viewer to get a good feel for what is going on, but i think your composition is excellent and well executed. I think in this case it is a photo that has no real problems or issues that needed to be fixed but did not have something to grab the voter and have them bump up the score to a higher vote.
I hope this is helpful to you and if you have any questions about my comments feel free to send me a PM. |

| I don´t really connect with this photo, it needs some dimension to work better, I mean, I have no idea if he is sitting 1 meter above the ground or hundreds of them, the environment doesn´t give that away. |
