I like this photo with the pos. and neg. spaces. It's a little abstract. Good luck.

Nice crop and composition, but more contrast would show the details better.

Not much negative space here in my opinion, it´s too cluttered. Nice pic though.

I don't see any negative space in this image; the subject fills the frame very nicely. It's a good shot, and I hope it's a stuffed crocodile not a real one, but it doesn't seem to fit the challenge.

FIRST IMPRESSION: It's an armadillo. First thing I saw. Background somewhat flat.

CHALLENGE: "Create a photograph where right angles produce the strength of the image." I'm not sure that you've accomplished that task - while I see a few right angles in the photograph, they don't stand out as being critical to the photograph itself.

COMPOSITION: The shadows and lighting seem to make the photograph seem flat. The level of detail/focus is good, but it just doesn't jump out to me. While the armadillo adds an element of interest, it just doesn't seem enough to compentsate.

TECHNICAL: Somewhat flat... I think either a different angle of shot, or photographer positioning, would give this image more depth.

CONCLUSION: I can see where this meets the challenge, though the presentation of the few right angles in this shot could be better. I'm fairly sure it's the angle you shot this from that makes it flatter and less appealing than it would have been otherwise. Take this into account next time, and I think your images will improve quite a bit.

Thanks for sharing and good luck in future challenges!

Looks like it needs more contrast and maybe a tighter cropping. Good luck!
