Greetings from the critique club. First let me say that I think you already know that you might have stretched a bit on the challenge. However a nice photo will usually score well. I think you already know that the dress is lost in the BG and the flower is blown too far out losing you some points. I wish the framing hadnt been so tight to give some headroom(pun intended) and their are some distracting lines in the background. Over all you scored well for the challenge with the flaws in the shot. Good luck in future challenges.

creative use of selective desat. it's corny but still original and individual. I like that combination! 8

Comment by howzitboy:
i dunno, to me there is too much dead spaces. The back of the chair's blackness is mirrored by the fireplace's blackness too. Leaving all blackness but not enough lightness to balance it. maybe a touch of light on the mantle?

Comment by Melethia:
It works, in my opinion. Very nice with the low key/low light effect.

It is beautiful. The rich dark sepia tones look so pretty with that light shining down on the scene. It draws you in and makes you think its more than just a picture of a chair -- like there's more to the story of that scene. I really like it.

Comment by chalice:
I had the same thought that sherpet expressed concerning the composition. I do like the use of light though.

Comment by sherpet:
I like the tobes and the light here but mabe the composition would have been better if you took a more side angle view by about 15%to 20% swing.....

Ummm. I like the idea of it. Maybe back up a bit so the chair isn't so "crowded" in the shot. I like the low key approach as well.
