Abandonby
tembaComment by SDW: I think you did a good job of showing an empty room but the picture is just ok however it does meet the challenge. There is nothing to make me say wow. You did a good job of obviously letting us see your one prop in the room. But it is a shark contrast to it's surroundings. The green is a bit to bright and blown to the point that the blue lines are hardly visible.
I like the Dof but the composition could of been a little better IMO. The corner of the room is to close to the middle of the picture and the layout of your prop is not random as it would be if someone would of pulled it off and dropped it to the floor. It looks to staged.
I would of liked to have seen the corner of the room a little more to the right of the picture (about on the third line) and the swim top off to the left in a random drop making it appear to be dropped to the floor instead of placed.
I'm trying to tie the title into the picture and the prop. I can see where the room and the title corresponds but the prop is a little of a stretch for me. But in fairness I don't know what your reason was for that particular prop, maybe abandoning a top as well and going topless. So it's not a bad title or prop.
As I was typing this I alternate shot came to mind. I think it would of taken this shot to a new level if you would of chosen a yellow poke dot bikini and had it on a rack hanging on the wall on the left side by the wall plate where the light is. Then it would of given me (the viewer) a sense of abandon room and the abandoned idea of someone being able to fit wear the bikini.
Overall your picture is not bad. I has good lighting, focus, and DOF. Composition could of been better. Good job maybe worth a second take.
Keep up the good work. 5
