You were robbed. Should've placed higher.

Good luck next time.

Nice tones lighting on the subject, but for me it seems to cross the line between intriguing & confusing << 6 >>

Super Sweet! I like that devilish doll. My suggestion: Make it either lighter or darker. Also, the moon looks a lil out of focus and distorted.

creepy

That little boy kinda creeps me out

Needs better lighting. I like the composition, I would have used a different ornament though, this one is disturbing.

The cymbals kid looks scary, instead of drawing a 'joyful' picture for me. The photo is too dark, maybe a slightly brighter lighting focused on the figure would have helped. The moon (I'm guessing that's a moon) is also shaped weird, more like a really ripe peach in black and white.

Cropping is good, but that's pretty much it. Bad lighting, looks harsh on that decoration making it even odder than it already is.

Man that is one eerie ornament. Image wise, although I get that it's supposed to be a nightime setting, it is too dim, which makes the subject more sinister looking (instead of joyful). Maybe if the subject was more crisp it would have helped. Good luck.

Nice idea, albeit the figurine boy looks creepy. Image is a little dark, I wished clarity was better too.

I find the doll very scarey. Like how the moon is composed in the shot.

hmm, this doesn't really seem to be from a table top, but I can't tell. Interesting concept.

I like it. It's well lit. I'm thinking you're getting a bunch of comments like, "Where's the table?" and "Is this on a table top?" I'm assuming these are on a table top. The moon looks oval shape, so it must be a picture of the moon.

Good luck. I'm giving you high scores.

scary little doll

"The idea is to get a photograph from an alternate perspective not normally viewed"

I can honestly say I have not ever viewed a figurine on a picnic? table with this perspective. You have nailed the challenge perfectly. As far as the picture itself I like it also, but would like to have seen the little dude facing the moon instead of away and out of the picture. 8

Very evil look on the toy coupled with the moon gives this an eerie feel.

Distortion of moon is distracting. Rest of image is pretty darn cool looking. Phenomenal lighting work on the figurine!
