Into The Blue

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: Fascinating image, like something from a science fiction film. The blue coloration is wonderful - it is well served by the motion-blur smoothness. The figures exhibit just enough blur to make this really interesting.

Critical stuff: Nothing.

Overall: Very strong work - would look great on a wall.

Positives: Brave image - I like it though, dreamy diffused colours and enough story to hold the viewers interest. Makes me want to know more about the scene.

Critical stuff: Perhaps a tighter crop at the top?

Overall: Very nice work.

Positives: Super shot with a great title! I really like the composition with the bilateral negative space. I like the way the light catches the glasses too. The stance of your subject and how it mirrors the lighting / shadow is a nice touch.

Critical stuff: Nothing really.

Overall: A very effective image. I like it.

Positives: Utterly wonderful coloration and light. I don't know how you've managed to boost the tonal contrast whilst maintaining a diffused look but it really, really works. I'd love to see your workflow on this one. The room and the way you've composed the shot makes for a masterful image.

Critical stuff: Nothing at all.

Overall: Lovely stuff.

This is really good - this sort of watery skyish landscape image wouldn't normally push my buttons but somehow this one has something special. Great balance to the image I think.

Reminds me of my July FS image but with lots more to look at.

Nice job, great toning.

Positives: I really like this, the sharp shaft of light, the shadows and the moving figure all hangs together really well. Very Nixtery - a good thing. What impresses me most, is the way you've balanced the image so well, great composition, just the right amount of blur, just the right amount of vignette.

Critical stuff: Nothing at all.

Overall: Very strong work.
