Comment by posthumous:
yeah, that's in the description, but that's not what negative space means. this photo has no negative space. and even if it did, it's too symmetrical.

...I see you marked my comment helpful. Very kind of you. I think I was too harsh, and definitely voted too low. I'm kind of biased against the "Larus" look that this photo has. I actually thought this photo would place much higher, but I think other people had trouble sensing negative space as well.

keep shooting!

beautiful colours but same feelings as others that the frame is too much and is squeezing the image so that it's too cramped.

The colors are beautiful and I love the reflections in the water. Maybe this needs to be bigger because it seems almost like the photo got squeezed down in the foreground making the rusty rock (on the right) seem almost out of place.

Perhaps a little too much explanation, and a little much going on in the "negative" space. Still, a creative shot.

Your title sucks (sorry for my rudeness, but I did not find an appropriate word). It's also a pity that there's quite a sharp background, because it takes a bit away from the WOW effect of the surrounding. It's still a very good portrait!

Looks like the inside of a military aircraft.. too small to be a C-130. Maybe a KC-9? Surprised you were able to get your girlfriend/wife/s.o. or daughter into the aircraft. As far as the challenge goes, the space around her isn't negative space in the strictest sense, because it's so busy. An interesting attempt to be different though.
