A bit oversaturated colors and overexposed atleast where the byte in the apple is, otherways a good ideea.

Comment by Artyste:
I like your idea, however, the grass looks a little "fake" to me, because of the blur, and the lighting (too bright) doesn't convey the mood very well, but the concept is great and very imaginative.

Stunning - oh I wish I could see these one day. What a sense of scale - and how tiny we all are.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

The message
A creative portrait with a contemporary style. It gives me the impression of someone who is serious but hip and maybe a bit mysterious.

Creative choices
There is a bit too much contrast here for a really effective portrait, and the bright spot in the background grabs attention, distracting from the subject. But the point of view and tilted look are great. The composition is a bit unbalanced, but it seems to work anyway.

Technical aspects
The wide dynamic range makes this technically difficult to capture, but it was adequately done (better lighting would have made exposure a lot easier!).

Comment by David.C:
Lighting: Needs a reflector on his left and a catchlight in his eyes so they are not lost in the shadows.
Pose: The pose is fine, but look into alternate expressions and posture. The tilt does nothing for me and cropping off his knee is not good.
Background: The shade works well, but including the supports of the tent greatly detract from the portrait, particularly where the bar cuts through his head.

Good idea for composition. Perhaps some soft lighting on the shadowy side of his face to match the reflection fron the front of the shirt.

Comment by TooCool:
Would love to see what the background really looks like here! Probably the best job of lighting the background for effect that I've seen in this challenge. The subject however is a tad bit too dark. A little fill light to bring out the detail in his pants and a little catch light would make this the bomb!

Wonderful capture, love the background ! The stern look on the face certainly portrays the seriousness of a photographer after his capture :), I would like to have seen the whole face more accentuated, a slight shadow on the right side, (the subject's left side) great tones. I like it !
