* Greetings from the Critique Club *
Man, I've gotten some tough ones to comment on lately - and this one is right up there with the best of them!
First of all, I think that this artistically met the challenge quite well. I wondered if someone would submit something like this. You must admit, that this is an extremely difficult image to comment on...
I do like it - in the context of the challenge. I guess I can't say too much more about the composition, crop, color, clarity, or lighting. I think they all speak for themselves in this shot.
Nice job. :-)
Just my 2 cents...
Jimmy

| A man of your religious conviction could be expected to stir the "meet the challenge" pot in such a playful way to have fun with the challenge topic. Congratulations - mission accomplished. :) |

It's a good thing this one got validated, otherwise, you might have risked entering such a beaut and missing out on the definite blue ribbon. Keep up the awesome work, love it, speaks so many messages at once, more than a thousand words. I love the tonal texture, and the useage of the rule of fifths in this one. Fantastic manipulation of lighting in the post-processing, lost points on camera shake though, I can see the detail is slightly hazy. Otherwise, and overall, fantastic well-put-together image! Fabulous. ......Now only if everyone else feels the same as me, we have a winner, and a site as corrupt as classic mutiny on the high seas.... Don't judge me.

| Hehehe... I don't know why you bothered sending in proof to get this validated - I wouldn't really want the 2.2 on my profile. I would have thought this was clever, but someone submitted an almost identical shot (it was all black) for the indecision challenge. Hence I'll give you a 5. |

| I gave this a really low score because I don't feel taking shots like this will improve your photography, and it isn't interesting to the viewers (at least not me). Let me know if I missed something - it is just blank, right? |

| There is a painting like this in the Dayton Art Institute in Dayton, Ohio. Except that the painting does have a 1/2 inch narrow band of color just inside the outer perimeter all the way around. But the rest of the painting is just like your submission. It is considered a work of art. So ......... nice shot. |

| Pure genius! I love this so much that I took I printed it and went to my local gallery to have it appraised. But they loved it so much that they stole the print (that I stole from you) and immediatly framed it and put it in the central showcase! But I must give you the credit for this amazing piece of art =). 10 |

06/01/2005 06:02:34 PM |
| Hmmmm. A decision was definitely made in order to choose this as an entry, however the stark white of the shot, and the blown highlight in the upper left corner, combined with the lack of a thirds rule type of composition is very distracting. I do like what the image is trying to say, but feel that the crop could have been a bit more tightly (or widely) used to better bring out the nature of your message. I'm sorry, but this image receives a one from me. |

Personally, I would have perhaps done a 16:9 or 3:2 crop to accentuate the nuances evident in your subject matter.

| I suppose you are doomed here, but speaking as an artist I find this to be a perfectly valid entry. If ever there was a challenge when a white box were appropriate, this would be it. As the maker of "self-portrait-as-raindrop", I have no choice but to give this a 10 :-) |
