Thanks ezns and every1 else for the comments. much appreciated.
The dead space was put there on purpose in order to force you to look for something in it.
On reflection , a little more light on my sons face would of helped. I am pleased with the effect considering the constraints of a point and shoot camera and think it looks great in my gallery on Pbase, where the background is also black. Thanks again. |

| Good idea, but it seems a little dark on my monitor -- was the boy just lit by the candle? If so, maybe a little extra light shining on his face would help. I like all the other black space on the other side of the image. Leaves us straining to look for something in the dark just as the boy is. |

| one of the better ideas for this subject, however needs to be a little sharper and would like to see just slightly more light on the face. |

nice photo! good composition. the empty space on the left side creates room for the imaginary intruder, monster or whoever is "there". nice lighting also and a good expression on the boys face.
i don't know if it's just my eyes who stared too much on monitors but i see square patterns around the light. maybe it's bad jpeg compression or a limitation of the camera, no points lost for that.
i like this photo.
only trifle is the strange blot between the candle and the face. almost looks like i touched my monitor there, but it moves when i scroll the photo up and down ;-) |

| Good idea but I would have liked this better if the candle were placed on the left third instead of centered (tighter crop). |

| Good interpretation of fear, but the bright candle is drawing my attention too much to the center of the picture. |

| The darkness and slight illumination on the kid's face really sets a mood. I know it is supposed to be dark, and on my monitor it is okay, but some people's seem to be darker. If you get a lot of comments to that end, sometimes it helps to submit a picture that is a shade or two brighter than what you really like. It may lose a touch of the effect on some monitors, but it seems to insure that everyone can see the picture. |

| nice expression, is the boy holding the candle? it might be better if his hand could be seen holding the candle.. |

| Good photo but needs more exposure on the kids face as well as a crop in to remove the dead spaces. |
