I Used a candle for bottom lighting, thats all. I only raised levels a bit, and sharpened. simple last minute submission shot...Im wondering if ill crack 5 here.

I thought about doing something like this... The red border is much too strong in comparison to the subject, and the lighting might be a bit too forward... not giving enough shadow. The reflection of the mask's eyes is too much.
way too much neat image here as u have lost all details and depth. the red border adds a mood to it but i think it is also a distraction to ur image. i like the comp, no blown highlights but the best i can give this is a 7 because of the painted feel rather than a photograph. plus u met the challenge too..good luck in the challenge
A fitting subject for this challenge. I'm thinking though that for the centered composition, in this case if the subject were to fill the frame more, it might make for a stronger presentation.
I like this. It meets the challenge - good old Darth Vader, symbolic of the "dark side" - and the photo is interesting. However, I would have scored it higher without the red border and more 'blackness/contrast' to the background. Best of luck with it though, it's a great image. 7 from me.
Agreed. Technology, in some instances, has become very dark. I liked the minimal lighting on this/ It is just enough to tell your story. Didm't like the border, though.
The title just doesn't work for this shot... The composition is a bit odd in that Darth's head is cropped by the bottom of the frame. I'd like to see it given a bit more room to breathe.
