nice use of negative space - I'm not making the connection with the title (no deduct) - a little too low-key tonally for me

This is so cool- I love that the horizon is sloped and there's a great use of negative space. The black and white is great and I love how there's such teamwork and that guy looks like he's having fun. Great job 10

I'm curious to see if you get comments on having too much sky. I like it, and commend you for subtle rule-breaking. The composition creates a feeling of the glider pilot's feel as he heads for the wide open sky, as opposed to focusing on the tethers to earth. This is a great image!

I like the use of negative space here, though the sloped ground seems to throw things off a little bit, as it fools with my sense of horizon. As a result, the people appear to be leaning a bit unnaturally. Also, I would have liked to see either a more intentional silhouette approach with less detail on the people, or a bit more exposure on them to bring out some of the variation. Right now, the foreground elements get caught between the extremes of silhouette and enough exposure to see detail.

I am a fan of the creative use of negative space. I would probably crop about an inch from the top for this one ... for utility (so when your viewers with smaller monitors open this page, you see the picture right away, and not just a gray space).

I am a fan of negative space and silhouettes, and in this case you have very interesting silhouettes, however I think there is too much sky with no detail. If the sky had better defined clouds to make it more dramatic, I think this crop would work, as it does suggest we are tiny as humans and there is a huge expanse of space for us to explore above us, but I think in this case, a landscape crop on the people, cutting off just above the glider, would look better. 7
