Nice capture, maybe something-something-live would be a better title...

Comment by S_Lanterman:
nice shot - the colors are awesome. I've been out to the end of the ogden point breakwater many a time. I'm not crazy about the border, and agree with Art's comments. the typography could be stronger. Also, your horizon is slightly crooked - it needs to be rotated clockwise. I've fiddled with it a bit to try and clean the text up (I didn't rotate it).

Comment by xianart:
a good set of images, on the whole, and a challenging and well represented topic. i do agree with the comments about the top two images - not as strong as the bottom at all. in my head i'm seeing a close up of her hand, limp and bloodied, maybe beside her head with a vacantly staring eye, and his hands gripping the shovel. then you'd have a continuum of imagery as well as theme.

well done, the colour, tonal range, and everything is spot on. god work.

Comment by DefyTime:
I think it would have received less low scores without the "dead" girl. I really like the other two shots...you know what has happened and I think it is more powerful to see the aftermath without the actual offence. It's all well done though.

Comment by UrfaK:
I'm completely unaffected by the blood, so taking that factor aside I would give it a 6 or 7[didn't vote]...I adore the destat look and your attempt at story telling...
my problem is that the top two pictures are not very strong for me .. they're functional for the story telling but don't add more... Instead of the potrait you should have gone for a more wider shot that looks less posed.. I think domestic violence is a good topic to go for but people, I think, want to see more of the home setting.. perhaps you missed a link in the story telling and instead of going straight to the murder you could have shown the story of how she lived before her death.. I do find it quite unfair that people can't think beyond how squicked out they are and give out 1s but that's the way the cookie crumbles..
