I dont really see the negative space as being the strength of this shot. The horizon seems "tilted" and the sky is overexposed on the right.

Picnic’s Cancelled

I think the subject is the picnic table, so the negative space is the grass around the table which isn't nearly as interesting as the sky. I don't see the sky as "negative space" because it's not what surrounds the subject.

lol. Too bad you can't have negative space without positive space. ;)

I'm not sure that it's the negative space that makes the wow of the shot. It seems like a standard macro shot to me. Not saying it doesn't qualify but it isn't using the negative space to do something unique or spectacular.

I don't see how this meets the challenge. I don't feel the space around the boy is the strength of your shot.

I like the reflection, but I'm not too crazy about the yellow streak on the left side.

Wow I can't believe people didn't relate this to the challenge. I gave this a 9. Maybe some people need to turn the brightness up on their monitors. What about the reflection in the glass??

Personally I liked everything about this shot, including the beds others didnt care for. Most children practice their instruments in their bedroom so I found the setting perfect.

I could just see a child practicing away while looking out the window dreaming of his or her recital. This photo told more of a story than any other in the challenge. Personally I think it should have been top 15 easy. :)
