sorry, but in my opinion, this barely qualifies for negative space, the checkered table cloth is too bright and actually attracting my attention. in addition, the whole photo seems a little soft overall. i wonder if you intended that, and if yes, why? i would rather see the shot a littler sharper. -- gr8photos.

THE GIFT

Comment:
this shot qualifies for the challenge, however, your horizon is rather tilted (but not enough to suggest it was done deliberately), and the photo is rather pixelated, probably due to the file being saved at 1/3 of the allowable size. there are some tutorials on this site to help you maximize the photo quality, i'd also be happy to try and help if you want to send me an email. -- gr8photos.

i'm sorry, but in my opinion, this isn't too much of a negative space photo, the dog takes up most of it and is not enhanced by the background. but then, the background also doesn't detract, the photo itself is nice, b&w works, i just wish there was a little catch-light in her eyes. -- gr8photos.

nope, this one does not classify for negative space in my eyes. as a photo, well, to be honest, it doesn't appeal to me much either, sorry. -- gr8photos.

i'm sorry, in my opinion, this does not depict negative space. there's too much going on with the light on the ground and the reflection in the windows. -- gr8photos.

sorry, but in my mind, this does not qualify as a negative space photo, there is too much going on in the background. as for the photo, because of the shadow and black fur, details in the dog's head are hard to pick out, and the head & eyes are generally very important to portrait. -- gr8photos.

i'm sorry, but i don't see this as a negative space picture, there's entirely too much going on throughout the whole photo. as for the photo itself, i love the colors, it's borderline abstract, but you can recognize it. very nice. i would probably try and crop out the bud at the top right, and (if that's possible w/out loosing too much of the photo) the purple leaf at the bottom right. definitely the bud though. -- gr8photos.

sorry, but this photo does not qualify for negative space in my opinion, there's too much going on in the background. you are even pointing that out in the title. as for the photo, i like the distorted fisheye view, but the stain or scratches on the gumball machine is distracting. i would also suggest cropping your photos tighter when you use that lens (and that means composing the photo so you can loose the edges) so that the 'rounded corners' from the lens aren't visible. -- gr8photos.
