"The Great Gatsby" Remembered

Comment:
Camp as !;) The dress looks absolutely strange using the over saturation. I like the gaiety, you've put quite some effort into the shot, it would make a great advert stock photo. Relates to the novel in a kitsch way.5.

Brave New World - Aldous Huxley
by Damon

Comment:
Beautiful light, the softness makes it a little murky, though the saturation brings a lot of detail out. The empty sky is in conflict with the large grass clump in the foreground. Individually, all the elements are very good, it doesn't gel for me as a whole unfortunately, a shame because you have picked a beautiful place to go. In regard to the novel, is can be subjectively related but not strongly. A nice effort just the same.5.

Comment:
For someone who doesn't like over saturation, this one has my attention, even if it leans to the left ;) It's a great composition and quite a vibrant and wild scene, what I imagine the novel is like (with my little knowledge of it).6.

Going to love to see the rest of the comments on this one ;) Playful, well set out, nicely lit but a little colour over saturated (no pun intended. In it's genre is very appealing, and you made the connection with the novel.5.

The Bell Jar
by grahamgator

Comment:
Sylvia's roman à clef, quite a beautiful scene of fragility and captivity. As an inspiration of the novel it is quite good if not literal. Technically mostly pleasing, while composition off centre is preferred the space on the left is empty and feels that way. Nicely done otherwise.5.

The Picture of Dorian Gray
by mrchhas

Comment:
A great interpretation, this selection really does benefit from a real model in the shot. Props are great, the use of mono very supportive of the novel theme. I would have cropped the right a lot closer to the model but that's only a minor issue. Good work.8.

Lord of the Flies
by posthumous

Comment:
Great location and bokeh, maybe if you had the boy's shirt off and some tribal marking it would have added to the atmosphere. Toning is great, like the composition and his look supports the story. 7.

Oliver Twist
by GeneralE

Comment:
I like the grungy feel, maybe a wooden spoon would have been better. Has potential though. The fringing is a little distracting, as is the white dot up top, and the blotchy finger is strange ;) I like the film effect you've produced, looks like a 60's Life magazine shot.6.

Don Quixote (de la mancha)
by Harlequin

Comment:
Probably need a bit more in the composition to push it into a larger interpretation of the novel. I like the mono, but it is a little flat in the lighting. It has an old world feel and I like the angle you have chosen.5.

'Something Wicked This Way Comes' by Ray Bradbury

Comment:
Get the feeling of mystery, fuzzy, the unknown which ties it to the novel. I get to make up the characters as I look and feel. The colours a little flat for me, but a brave effort for this lot.6.
