This I like. A simple, elegant presentation of shape. Beautiful lighting.

The major dark and light areas of this shot create a powerful abstract composition. I would really like to see that small light piece that is sticking up into the dark area cloned out. It really distracts from the strength of the composition of the overall shot.

In the Garden of Globes

My first thought with this was, "What a very odd photo!" Those globes are so BIG, and she is so small. I find this shot appealing from several angles: the very "otherworldly" feel of it; the decision to keep only the delightful pink as the "color" element; and the juxtaposition of the tiny girl and the giant globes. I think this shot would have much more impact for me if the background was blurred. It is just "busy" enough that it distracts. This photo makes me wish it was a 360 shot so I could look around and see where the heck am I, and what the heck are these big globes doing here anyway??!! 8

The more I look at this, the more I like it. Just enough information to enable you to make out the shape, and I love that you used the colors to sort of separate elements of the subject. On an emotional level, this shot has moderate impact for me, but I do find it interesting to look at.

Quite a powerful shot. Would love to see it in black and white to see what that does to it. Lighting and composition could not be more perfect for the subject, and totally fits the challenge. 10

Stunning color, and interesting concept for shapes. The composition is strong, well balanced and very visually engaging. I admire the imagination it took to come up with this kind of shot. 10

Wonderfully moody shot and an excellent entry for the shapes challenge. I think that I would have found the composition to be more powerful with both of the sides cropped "in" some - there seems to be just too much "space " around the main shape. 8
