I knew this wouldn't finish really high, but I thought it would do better than it did. I purposely shot it in low early morning light, as that is when someone is dressing for the day. I liked the softer tones the light gave. Several complaints that it was too dark --- I don't know if these people weren't really considering the meaning of my lighting choice or if their monitors are turned too low. Oh well, shoot and learn...

I like the arrangement in this shot. It could grace the wall of a bar in London's Hoxton Square and look ultra cool. The subdued colours are great and the lighting delivers texture and depth. Very nice.

I really like the balance this image produces in spite of the dishevelled blankets and rippling textures. The colours all work well together and the lighting is really quite beautiful.

this photograph was somehow different from all the other clothing/shoe/cliche things photos. it looked real....but had a well composed feel to it. it sure looks like something id throw out on my bed, not a set up shot. the colors contrast well with each other, and the shadows and wrinkles are good. this picture could even be read into more than just what shirt to wear, but also...look at that nice comfy bed, why put on one of these shirts when i can climb back in bed.

Too dark of a picture to distinguish the different shirt and ties.

The color looks a little flat - perhaps a tad more saturation.
