Hey ya'll.....I entered this shot into a 24 hour Speed contest with basic editing rules and came in DEAD LAST! Is it really THAT bad? I would love some ways to improve it or some comments on what I did wrong or poorly.
Thanks in advance! :-)

Hi,
I think you suffered because your photo looks washed out, and there´s a difference between High Key and washed out..
Not the best maybe but this was one of my try´s in High Key:

Bump up the contrast A LOT... it should help you get the image details you need.

You need shadows(black areas). Every image must have shadows, midtones and highlights.

I disagree. Check out this beautiful photo. Looks to me like only midtones and highlights. |

It's not my photo, of course. It belongs to David J. Nightingale of the excellent www.chromasia.com He has the highest rated photoblog (out of a total of over 17,000 photoblogs!) on www.photoblogs.org
