The main light source is coming from the left, but you've tilted your head into which creates the majority of your face being in a shadow. It's not terrible, just noticeable. Nice and sharp, though ... cool idea.

Comment by airatic:
Very strong theme, composition is nice, lighting is a bit too harsh here, I think. Good shot overall and a probable ribbon for the challenge.

9. I have no idea what he's holding..but the window reflection is cool and the background is neat. The focus, light and color are all good here. Good entry and good luck in the challenge.

Hi greetings from the CC !!

Its my job to try and give you some meaningful feedback on your image,. I'm new to this, so I'll do my best.

Lets start with the obvious, the humour. Most commentators have applauded your inventiveness and humour, and I think that worked really well. The thing about humour is that it has to connect, and not everyone is on the same wavelength. Using humour can be a slightly risky strategy for that reason. You will see from the forums that some people wouldn't recognise humour if it slapped them on the cheek ;-)
I have to say I did pick up on this and awarded it a 6.

So why did I not give it a 7, well I think its the lighting which really is the big element which lets this image down. The very obvious shadow line mentioned in other comments is the first giveaway. However I think its something to do with the lack of side lighting which gives the face a flat feel. Now I don't claim to be a portraite photographer, but I do feel theres something extra which could have been made of the lighting and the models face.

The skin tones also appear a little 'red' on mu monitor and maybe that too could be addressed either with the white balance setting on the 10D or in PS afterwards.

Having said all that I really did enjoy the image. I think it showed huge amountts of invention and really give me a laugh when I first saw it. I congratulate you.

Hope that helps a little.

Regards

Falc

I thought this should have scored much higher, perhaps some did not look long enough to really see what was there. Interesting that the votes from the commenters was so much higher then the average.
