This isn't a picture of light, it's a picture of darkness! So why am I giving you a 9? Because there is no darkness without light.

Beautiful composition, wonderfully hidden leopard. It's the hiding that demonstrates viscerally just how dangerous this creature is. 9

One light, two faces

orientation really does make two lights of one light. Very good, creative fulfillment of the challenge. 9

graininess, abstraction, what's not to like? This is mysterious in all the right ways... wait, I see a person there! with a lamp for a head! Man, this is cool. 9

light warmth

you have quite simply transformed this teddy bear into something mysterious and compelling... He and his window(?) are now a landscape, the setting for a controlled explosion of beauty. I'm not sure I like the bottom, where the backlighting and uplighting reveal too much information about the bear. But that's just a note for future experiments. Showing me something compelling that I've never seen before warrants a 10. (but I do think you should keep working on this shot/series. I don't think you've exhausted the possibilities yet)

street light...

so elegant, so minimal, but the point is made: something about trying to find beauty on the street. 10

The Cat House

what a beautiful photo. you have a world of rectangles at exciting angles, some due to perspective, others to orientation, large mysterious areas of darkness with long highlights in them, and you have your subject calmly but alertly centered in all this madness. Oh, and you have light, coming in through the windows. 10

The Night Club

This photograph

1) fulfills the challenge. the whole atmosphere and illusion is achieved through lighting.

2) is so damn funny.

3) might keep me from ever eating a banana again. either that, or make me strangely aroused whenever I do. oh wait, that already happens...

10) 10
