I have mixed feelings about the table but leaning more toward that it almost looks like it belongs as ground maby, could be my meds kicking in too. But I do love the low contrast soft shadow effect, great work!

Nicely framed, great idea. I'd like to see what you used for this shot.

I guess it is " painted with shade"..

creative! a little less contrast for my taste and maybe you should have taken the shot more from the front and a little below (to make the giraffe hight, it's a tall animal)

The angle of the shot, with the apparent revelation that this was taken indoors, hurts this shot -- the bottom right corner is a distraction.

Great use of shadows! The shot appears a little underexposed and blurry, but I still like it a lot. Also, I might have cropped differently to lose the floor and get the whole plant in the shot. Some more contrast would help, as well.

I'd have liked to see the shadows a bit darker.

The table in the corner really detracts from the shot.

This is an interesting photo but I think the tone and contrast doesn't strike my senses as much as i would like...

I would have liked this more had the shadow looked like it belonged in the setting of the rest of the photo. I could be wrong but this looks like it was projected onto an interior wall.

GREAT idea ! The table in front is the only major flaw and the shadow would be great just a bit darker. This is just cool !
