I like the title for this. I find the light a little harsh on his shorts, making them overexposed, also his shins. Adjusting the levels to reduce this would have helped. The cap means that his face is in shaddow, so either fill-in flash, or remove the cap would have been better as then it would have brought out the expression more ion his face.
The off-centre crop seems to work. I would have been tempted to remove some of the foreground, as the bottom layer of rocks doesn't add to the effect, and are not sharp either.

Nice photo but something seems a bit off with the color, his skin looks a little pink.

Not a bad photo but it looks way oversaturated.

A bit bright, the highlights are washed out. The focus appears a little soft also.

seems a little over exposed, maybe if the shorts weren't white, it would not give that impression

The colours are slightly oversaturated for my liking but a good idea and composition,

Nice composition and colour.

I really like the title, the shot is a bit overexposed though.

Interesting idea.

Maybe a little overexposed and could use a bit of USM, but a good idea and nice expression to show effort.

Meets the challenge well, but blurry and over saturated.

Great face and tension in the arms. Fill flash would have been nice to take care of the shadow on the face without overexposing the shorts. A little soft as well.

Nice lighting on the rocks. I know they are sometime hard to capture correctly without camera shake. Nice shot

I like the colours but the brightness on the nether regions draws the eyes a bit
09/10/2008 04:21:32 AM
nice title..
09/10/2008 03:26:45 AM
I think the contrast is abit over done. Nice composition.

Burned at the seams (pun). White shorts to exposed

The idea is good, though the image is not convincing enough. The guy does not seem to be trying too hard to move the rocks, as the legs seem too relaxed to truly be putting forth effort. The rocks are interesting - perhaps bring out a bit more of their textures.

Good shot, but the subject isnt original as you would see post voting.
