But the photo really wasn't lit with this flame. And I wish it were.

I'm More Wired Than Ever!

Super concept. Good realization. My gut reaction to the picture is "I hate it." But the humorous content is worth two points.

The large photo is much better than the postage stamp promises. The lighting and background are inspired.

C'est Moi

Sorry, I saw little here that distinguished it from a snap shot. I can see you used lots of lights: one or two for the background, and a strong one (or two)overhead. And these certainly distinguish it from a snapshot. Nevertheless they produce a snapshot quality. I find the curtains distracting. And the purple sweater makes no sense to me - the rest of the photo makes me expect a sepia. Also it looks blurry, as if the focus was on the curtains instead of the subject.

"Tax Time"

It's crazy. I don't know why I like this photo. Maybe it's because the lighting is right out of a product commercial : it's cold, its uniform, it's unrelenting. Nobody every uses this for portraiture. The guy behind the computer should be a tall skinny guy with thick black hair wearing a pinstriped suit. And if you close your eyes there he is.

Very unusual. This photo breaks most of the rules, but I like it for the expression and the fact that the mount and eye are what we see.

Sorry, in this viewer's eyes this is a godawful ugly guitar, and the photo just happens to be entirely about this ugly monster.
