Comment by Amphian:
I wish I could draw that well! I think I'd like the lighting a little more toward the front of the shot to reduce the shadow of the hand.

Interesting idea, want either more or none of the picture being copied. Also a little more hand and little less shadow beneath it. Like that I can see the texture of the paper and pencil upon it.

Nicely taken shot but Im not sure about the framing. There's a large empty area in the bottom right that doesnt really work for me. Very impressive drawing though!

This is a good photo and a great drawing too. I wish it were a bit brighter and the shadow from the hand taken off the legs so we could see them better. Also could the photo that is being drawn from be more in the photo? Maybe at least up to the spot the pencil is currently drawing on? Great photo and good luck in the challenge.

Composition is not bad. Unfortunetly, the whole pic is a bit blury and this distracts from me giving it any higher than a 6.

Going to college. There is nothing else in the world that will compare to that feeling. Definately a new experience. Subject is great, lighting is great. I wish there was a bit sharper focus, however it doesn't take away from the photo. The pencils and pens seem a bit cluttered, but then again, that may just add to the new experience as being a bit confusing. I like how you included the student ID in there. Nice photo, good luck with the challenge.

On the technical side, the colors seem funny to me (maybe a white balance problem) and the focus is too soft.
