Comment:
The dark room with a person staring at the monitor is unfortunately very overdone. To achieve an impact, the image should be very unique, with a quality of light and shadow that add extreme interest. This image comes off like a 2 minute setup, with not much thought to the overall exposure or subject matter.

Focus is great and the screen exposure is good, but the real subject is lost to the darkness.

While it meets the challenge, the image is not interesting. Question: would you print this and place it in a photo album?

Score: 2

How Do I Do This?

Comment:
Meets Challenge Superbly, however there are glaring issues here, specifically blown highlights in the windows, harsh reflections in the screen and the screen's image is also way blown out. There is less subject overall than overexposed area.

A faster shutter speed for this image and/or a smaller F-stop would greatly reduce these problems. Your hand appears blurred, due to slow shutter (everything else is in focus). Unfortunately, a somewhat boring image.

Score: 2

How Can I Help You Today

While very easily meeting the challenge, I find the red cast and exposure of the image detracts from the quality of the image, leaving it noisy and forcing the surrounding items to compete directly with the main subject. Unlike some images where the photographer is incidental or minimized in the overall presentation, this one unfortunately seems that it should be predominant, but is lost in the shadows and other incidentals.

A bit more light (perhaps a diffused flash)to eliminate shadows and red cast, a closer crop to eliminate some of the cameras and a bit of rotation to straighten out the shelving in the background.

apologies: Score: 2

So after reviewing your portfolio, I am compelled to say, "If I could be half the photographer at 40, that you already are at 16, I would be very happy."

Kudos to your sharp eye and style. Seriously consider making this a career choice.

This is a great shot and I think you could have achieved the fuzz factor with a much smaller aperture, longer shutter and tripod.

Very nice job!

I love the vignetting in each of the cells. A great choice of subject matter for this type of image.

You've learned a lot about the post processing of PS! This is a great rework!

I like this a lot. The abstract nature is very appealing as is the symmetry of the crop. Would personally like to see the images lines contrasted a bit more and some USM Sharpening to really make it pop out. For some reason, the image makes me think of cold, stark, art, rather than the soft warmth of the current post processing.

I really like the deeper tones of blue and the narrower crop of this version! A great improvement!
