Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: All Alone (Classic Editing)
Camera: Canon PowerShot A70
Location: My lounge
Date: Oct 19, 2003
Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 50
Shutter: 1/2
Date Uploaded: Oct 19, 2003

 It was a very close call submitting this for Lighting or All Alone. In the end I took the advice of my friends and opted for All Alone.

Very little editing was done. A converted it to b&w on the green channel, then used curves slightly to brighten the background.

Nice handling of light and shadow, but I wish the subject were lit a bit better.

I quite like this one, perhaps a bit too much going on on the left, but the lighting is interesting and somehow the blinds/curtains give the perspective an almost surreal fealing

The low key treatment of the subject is well done and works with the model's pose and express to express loneliness. The hidden bright light adds interest and mystery.

The subject shadow is tooooo dark for me....the lighting does not quite make sense. A very fine effort none the less.

I really like the lighting and the large shadow of the chair. Awesome!

Too strongly back lit. A bit more light on the face would really improve this shot.

I bet you will get a lot of "too dark" comments for this. I personally think the darkness adds to the lonliness and alone mood.

I absolutely love the lighting on this. Would also do great for "Lighting" or "Shadows". Nice work.
