Wow..hard to believe this one came in so low. I think it's just an excellent shot. Good exposure, good focus and use of b/w and nice casual pose of the subject. I like the rather dark contrast and tend to use that a bit more myself. I think it adds some drama to a shot. It's done really well here without overdoing it.
The only thing I can see to do differently would be maybe some slightly different composition to focus on the texture a bit more...just for the challenge, though. As a portrait I like it just the way it is.
Composition: Great angle though I feel a wider field of view is needed to add depth. One distraction - the person's shirt since the tones are brighter than other areas of the image. 7
Exposure: Seems bang on. Plenty of contrast and the texture of the bricks has been captured well. 10
Impact: The angle of the shot is what creates the impact here and does the job quite well though I feel a wider field of view would add to the impact. 7
Nice, one of the few pictures that has a person in a shot that isn´t a close up of a beard or eyebrows or such and it makes it stand out, I like it and it breaks up the voting in the challenge, I immediately noticed this thumbnail. Nice work.
excellent photo, i really like the choice of black and white. the biggest problem, for me, is that while the girl can surely feel the texture of those bricks, i can't. i also think that her skin and shirt used to have more texture before neatimage got ahold of them. i really wouldn't change anything technically or compositionally for this photo, as a photo in general, just maybe to fare better in this challenge.
Good photo! Very dynamic. Good angle to convey action. Good capture of her expression. I guess I feel the texture of her life, but not the bricks as the title implies.
shame, missed the opportunity here, put her face against the wall left,picking at the paint cd b a top ten shot, here texture comes second to the model, sorry.5
Another nice image featuring this very good model; she swaps her chains for bricks! It was an inspired idea to have her feeling the texture of bricks like this, especially with such a captivated expression on her face... it makes your texture image into something special. You don't just show the texture, you show us what it feels like. That's two very fine & creative challenge interpretations in a row! 8
