My understanding of low key is a mostly dark (black) photo with subtle lighting on the subject to show the shape or a few details. This is not what I am finding as I am voting, so I was just wondering if my thinking is incorrect. I know these types of threads have been frowned on lately but I would hate to vote on a challenge and be looking for the wrong thing.

I agree, most of the shots I have seen are under-exposed, not low-key, and I vote them down accordingly as they do not meet the challenge. No doubt we will have the usual crowd saying (If its a good photo then it shouldnt be voted down just for not meeting the challenge), to which I say "B*ll*cks!", if thats the case we may as well do away with challenges and just have an "Open Study" challenge every week. |

Elaine it is not inappropriate but there is already a discussion going on in this thread about the low key challenge so I'd like to direct this discussion back there okay? |

Perhaps the best approach for you would be to vote according to what YOU feel is low key. Your opinion is as valid as any... :) |
