Spider on Lampshade

Very well done. I hope you aren't hearing it about DOF or focus. It's a terrific shot IMO. If you are getting those comments a lot, I'm sure it's from people who haven't done a lot of macros, especially not without much light, because that's tricky enough. Marvelous shot. This would've been a great neg space shot. - Inspzil -9

Baby Blue

Cute baby. I don't like the blue at all. It makes him look like a baby smurf. Sorry. - Inspzil

Great concept for the shot, but the execution didn't happen as well as I think it could've. The left side is underexposed and the right side is pretty good, maybe a little bright. Good luck! - Inspzil

Light the Light Thru the Tree

Comment:
I have mixed emotions about this one. The subject is super, that is one tree that is photogenic, if they possess such qualities. I think the framing of the tree is mostly good, I wish the other side didn't get cut off, but I can see why it is due to trunk position and filling the frame properly. I don't like where the light is placed because I think more emphasis should be placed on the cool curvy (notice the hi-tech photomographical jargon) limbs. This is I think the challenge part of this challenge. As it is, it's pretty good. It has the feeling of an oil painting, which I really like. And I'm just sort of in the mood to talk today, so I'm sure if you aren't getting many comments, you'll be enjoying this one. I was going to add the "what I would have done..." part and if it really interests you to know, PM me and I'll tell you. Good Luck on this challenge. I'm finally done. - Inspzil

This may be the best portrait pic I've seen on here. If not the best, my favorite. You will be in my top 10 or better (after I vote on a few more, like 220 more). This is wonderful lighting, composition, I could go either way on B&W. I bet it would be killer in color too. Great Job!! - Inspzil

A little sharper focus would've went a long way on this one. - Inspzil

Great use of lighting, great framing, great subject.... THIS is the dramatic that was asked for by the topic. It's so simple, but says so much. This is for me, the most powerful image I've seen on DPC. The title is great too and if you've kept up with all the hullaballoo in the forums dealing with titles, this one does exactly what it's supposed to do, help clarify some things without giving a long description of what's happening in the shot. Thanks so much for sharing it. 12/10 - (if I could) - Inspzil

Nice idea. Well executed. I don't know if I like the stuff around the bottom or not. I don't believe it takes away from the fine quality of this pic though. wtg! - Inspzil

Oppression.

Did she get locked accidently in the ferret's cage? I think I see the intent here, but I don't think it was accomplished. The lighting is pretty good, the circumstances are just too hokey. And does she NEED to be undressed? Its definitely NOT that I mind at all. Just maybe not here. Good effort - Good luck - Good day - Inspzil

You didn't have a little sign with some numbers on it he could hold up? It's a little mugshottish. Good luck - Inspzil
