A Guy in a bar sitting all by his lonesome, seemed a little bit down in the dumps or blue over something, having realised his mood I felt I should extensuate it a little further...

Nice setting, the posture of the subject gives a semi-loneliness to the image - looks rather relaxed to me. Definitely fits the all alone portion of the challenge, I like the lighting and the focus is good. The negative art choice is an interesting one, does add a little oomph to the image - I'm not sure if the neon-like colors aren't too distracting though. Also I have to ask.. is the tie stained? I like the different direction. Nice work. 7

he is definitely all alone, but the effect you have applied to the photo is very distracting

Too radical of an effect on this one. Going monochrome is one thing, totally making the picture negative is a little too far with this sort of picture. It can be done with the right kind of picture, which I believe is something a little more abstract.

Good setup, but the inverted look doesn't appeal to me. Sorry

You had a good idea here. This gentleman is sitting all alone, the poster indicates he is in a location where people can meet others such as a bar or lounge. I don't see anything so wrong with the picture that you had to resort to such a harsh color treatment. There must have been a more elegant way colorize it. Right color, wrong treatment.

I like the use of a negative, the blue tint and the angle. Nice shot.

Nice composition. The negative look really makes this image stand out.
