Nicely executed. Good tonal range on the desaturation too.

Had fun thinking of this one, eh? Well done...I especially like how the paint drippings on the can are also in color. Well done! (9)

very clever idea. good job editing.

Cool idea! However, there is nothing really 'white' in the photograph; highlights that might be white are actually a washed out gray. I have that problem a lot, and have discovered that ajusting levels in photoshop really helps. Otherwise, nice job!

I like the idea, just think maybe a different execution would have helped you score a bit higher. 6

I like the idea and the concept here. Initially I gave this a 10 but going back thru I decided to look closer at the image.

I think your missing some sharpness and clarity. I also think that your border is too big. You're shirt is kinda to dark also. IMO. So I gave you an 8 instead.

Still one of the more creative ones though.

Not to be too picky but the fact that the stipes from the same roller start at different places bugs the heck out of me. I'm just anal, I guess. There is also too mych blank white wall to his left. Cutting about 2/3 of that would have made it a far better shot.

Well thought out and processed. maybe a little color on the end of the brush would add. Great pic, well done!

Good idea but different angle may have worked better.
