Greetings from the Critique Club!
First impression: This is such a great use of a single light source, but the choice of model, pose and location really makes it an outstanding image. Glad to see your creativity was rewarded with a ribbon! :-)
Artistic: It's always tough to critique images that have ribboned. Love the dynamic pose esp on the edge of a cliff, in the dark...guess you and your model knew the surrounding area well as you'd have been painting him with sparklers. The hoodie/mask? adds an air of mystery to him too.
Technical: Aha! Finally I found something to pick apart - I do feel that there is too much negative space to the right. But otherwise I am at a loss.
Overall: Again this is just such a great example of what I'm always telling noobs to do - concentrate on taking a good pic and don't worry about the pp. Because this image is just perfect for illustrating the KISS principle. I take it from your comments that you were on DPC before and are returning. If that is the case, please stay!!
Feel free to PM me,
Susan |

"Use a single, artificial light source to dramatically light the subject of your choice" Think i did that literally ;) Thank you all for the good comments and votes. Nice to be back here :)

| Everyone I guess is wondering how was this done. Very spectacular effect. You might though get a lot of: How is this one source with so many sparks? 8 |

| I believe I am going to need detailed instructions with diagrams so I can see how this was done. Very impressive both technically and artistically |

| I've been racking my brain trying to work out how you've done this. I was initially thinking a quick flash then a long exposure... or did you have an assistant by any chance? ;) |

| OMG!!! That is too cool for words! I sure hope you're not getting any "that's more than one light source" comments!!! Fabulous. Perhaps not quite so much negative space. |

| That's very well posed and made (or you actually decided that self combustion was well worth the glory, hope not :). Very good choice of location. |
