This is a good idea but the image is too dark and shot from too far away for anyone to get the meaning of industrial. Sorry but keep trying.

I am ok enough with my manhood that I can say this is a wonderful shot of the Human body. I know I also have a six pack as well defined, but it is below a belly that keeps it a secret. LOL.
Now about the photograph, the light the fact it is black and white shows the texture of the skin and muscles so well. Excellent work I hope you score really high and maybe even get a ribbon.

Originally posted by karmat: CRITIQUE CLUB CRITIQUE by karmat I think what works in this shot is the unusual angle of composition you have chosen. It fits with the attitudes and abilities of these guys (who amaze me to no end!). In my opinion, the desaturation doesn't really add anything to this shot. It helps somewhat to focus the attention on the skater, but his read shirt may have done that anyway. Also, and this is just a small nitpick, there is a red dot that is seen in the middle of the picture, and to me, it helps to pull the attention away from the boy. The "negative" space at the bottom of the frame helps to give the impression of the boy soaring through the air, but to me, that freedom of soaring is countered by him being so far in the corner -- kinda like he is squashed in there. Interesting idea and great capture. karmat

I was laying on my side on the ground looking up to the guy on the board, I had planed my shot so when he came to the light post he would jump and I would have focused on that beforehand so as not to loose him. The reason for the tilt is to comppell you to follow the lines to the skater, in that sense I would say it works. As far and the red dot? Well I had to look at this a number of times to find it, I could not have removed it anyway since the challenge was basic editing, so the second boy to the bottom of the skateboard or I would have.

Thanks for commenting on my shot and the constructive ideas.

I don't like this shot at all, that is saying something because I think I have seen this women before and loved the shots I have seen. My problem is looking at it quickly it seems her nose is broken, looking closer I see reflected in her eyes what looks like 5 sources of light, I thought it was single light source? Also whatever you did to add contrast makes her skin look like worn leather. It is such a shame she is such a pretty women too.
