Removing the wrinkles in the backdrop would have helped immensely in this instance. As it stands, the image would seem to suggest that you paid scant attention to details.

Photo lacks sharpness. Good idea!

I like the idea a lot. Just wish the lines of the models face stood out more from the background on the left.

I like the idea very much, but the photo seems to be a bit out of focus.

Hello from the Critique club, my name is Jon Rowe, and i will be looking at your image this evening :)

Composition/Lighting : this is a very interesting image. i like it a lot. it really has a lot of potential. i think the composition works, and the cluttered background truly shows the life of an IT specialist. i've worked in computer repair / IT for 6 years now, and this looks like my desk :D i think the monitor should definitely be on, w/ maybe a blue screen to fit the rest of the image, and might have given some additional fill light from behind. lighting is on, but maybe a slightly faster shutter speed to get rid of those blown highlights on the right side.

Challenge : i think this fits the challenge quite nicely. it really caught my eye when voting b/c i can relate to it, and i think it shows how busy the profession is, wether it's helping out a customer or killing time on DPC between jobs :D very well done.

Conclusion : composition, lighting, all is well done. just a few things w/ blowouts here and there, but other than that well done. very nice score on this, and as you continue to enter more challenges, i think the potential you have here will prove well for you, and you'll continue to grow as a photographer. very nice job!

Keep on shootin!

Good luck on your future challenges:)
-Jon Rowe

I think Norton has a program to get the ghosts out of your machine!

This is a really neat image, only I think maybe a slight glow from the monitor would be nice to make us belive it is on. But its very nice overall.
