Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.
I hate getting the site council pics .. but here ya go :)
First Impression - the most important one:
Love the concept .. looks a little unnatural/uncomfortable.
Composition:
This is nicely done, the use of the different panes is ok ... but could have been played further by having the hand fully in the first bottom pane. The model (I know its you) looks uncomfortable ... don't know why as you have photographed yourself before ... oh well.
Subject:
Meets the challenge.. and how does it ... just hang the window from the ceiling .. this is a unique take on the challenge .. at least you got no reflection.
Technical (Colour and light):
Love the colours ... black and white I think may have been overkill ... the strong colours against the white really do work.
To grow its vote?:
Couple of things .. think of yourself as a model when you are ... and what the photographer would say ... loosen up .. relax ... also try several different crops .. this may have worked better using the actual frame as the crop ...
Summary:
I think this is a good shot .. this is also out of the box .. so keep thinking that way.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.
Cheers
Kari
