Missing

This would have gotten at least a 7 from me. It's got texture and emotion in that texture. I didn't find the ambiguity in the title that you did. For me, the title seems to be trying to force this image into a story about a girl gone missing. But the picture DOES have the ambiguity you describe. Yes, something is "missing" here, but we have no idea what it is.

Well, you achieved the ad look, and the vacant look. I just don't understand why ads need to have that look. It doesn't make me want to buy anything. In case you're interested, I gave this photo a 5 because it successfully achieved what it was trying to achieve.

That dress looks uncomfortable. I don't get any feeling from the model.

Nice use of color. I get nothing from the model's pose, though. It seems artificial without being symbolic or surreal.

Walk the Dog (30 days of blur)
by Jutilda

Comment:
from the pedagogy thread:

There's always that risk with a blurred shot that it will just look like a regular shot that wasn't focused (I'm sure some people feel that way about every blur photo). This photo gets dangerously close to that point for me. Instead of feeling like something new was created, it tends to feel more like something I already recognize but is trying to hide from me, for no thematic reason I can discern. What I do like about it is the violence of the camera shake lines. I think you have a good technique there and if you point it at the right thing you can have a great photo.

p.s. on reading your comment, I do like the stripes... perhaps if the composition emphasized them more...

What I like most about this one is that the blur distorts the dog so much that it actually changes the appearance of the dog... into a cartoony, perhaps a little scary, sort of creature.
