A Delightful Surprise

This has great potential...but the light isn't consistent with the action. Notice the lid of the box is not fully opened. If the light on her face was really coming from the box....there would be a diagonal shodow from the lid accross her face. Also I wish the wall behind her were black. Nice shot and idea though.

Wow...this is very nice. I'd love to hear exactly how you did this...I have my guesses....but I'd like to know for sure. The feather on the far right is a little hot....but I can see how it'd be tough to get this perfect. Great shot! Should do well.

I'm not so much a fan of the lighting here. Idea is good though.

Nice job!

The whites of the eyes look over photoshopped.

Compositionally well done within the frame. The subject is off-cente, thats good. I think it would have been leff "flat" and a little more dramatic from a 1/3 profile shot with the lighting coming from the side. Rule of thumb....lighting is ALWAYS more dramatic from the side.

I hope you do well! Bump you up to an 8 :)

STOP !!!!

I like how the smoke almost acts as exclamation marks next to the sign! Not a fan of the cloudy cast over the whole image. Adds a real mucky and flat feel. Nice job creatively though.

Hello!

Composition: You subject is dead center. It would have been better visually off to the side or from a different angle or perspective. There are also many distracting elements to the photo including the light coming out of the house. Also the light post on the right is a bit distracting.

Lighting: Could be a bit brighter. I know its tough against the sky...but a good flash, or maybe even car headlights from far away would have added some contrast to that the photo isn't quite so "flat".

Creativity: As you've seen from many of the entries there is some really creative stuff out there! Its an interesting looking sign with the plant growing up it. Still sort of "snapshot-y" as far as creativity.

Overall: A nice effort, but could be much better with just a few small tweaks that I mentioned above. Take my opinion with a grain of salt though. Keep up the good work, and think way outside the box for that extra boost of creativity! :)

Nice color in the ground behind the sign....but the sign is too dark and I wish the brach wasn't obstructing the view of the front of your sign (the subject of the photograph. You should have brought some brach cutters with you in the cover of darkness the night before!

Slightly longer exposure would have done this justice. A bit dull. Maybe will a little more of a hur/sat boost it would have popped a bit more. Nice shot though compositionally.
