Don't watch me Bath!

Minimalist imagery is always appreciated. A solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it has significant impact being richly colored with excellant detail. This image would have worked as a black and white as well. A perfect demonstration of the power of properly controlled light and focus. Well done. PS: Bathe - not bath. :>)

A good solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image but of less than universal appeal. A good entry into the challenge.

Tilt

Comment:
As photographers, sometimes we have what we think is a good idea that just doesn't quite work the way it was intended - this is a pretty good example of that concept. The rather odd angle of the image is rather distracting and not terribly effective. While a good idea, it failed on execution. Having said that, it is a technique to keep in mind for the future - some patience looking for the right image would be in order for this technique to be truly technically and artistically effective.

It might have worked better with a more focused approach with less grain and highlights. The rather odd angle of the image is rather distracting and not terribly effective.

A good solid image that is properly framed and composed if just appears to be softer focus than it could be. Good colors and an effective composition. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image but of less than universal appeal. A good entry into the challenge.
