I like the idea, but the smashed glass is a little distracting. I do like that it's smashed, but somehow, it seems like it would be more effective if it were just cracked, or if it were easier to discern that there are two people in the photo frame. Good idea.
Nice shot, great idea... might have looked even better in a more homely setting (like on a living room table) as opposed to the black backdrop... should still do well here. Good luck - 8
I wonder if this would have worked better with the shot taken from directly above, asthe cut off frame doesn't look quite right, also the left edge is trimmed a little more than the right - would have preferred it if they were a little more even
Great idea (would also work well with the "unanswered questions" challenge, I think. I like the "darkness" of the shot as it helps to set the mood. I don't like the framing as well though -- it feels "cut off" to me.
Very poignant shot. Such a great concept. But... it's a huge shame it wasn't carried off better... the glare on the frame detracts, the lighting in general seems a bit harsh. It looks like only one near light source was used, which casts unappealing shadows. I'd have liked to see the whole frame included, and a better background used. The current background accentuates the noise caused by shooting in low light. Perhaps if the photo was slightly rotated as well, to imply that it had been thrown down, rather than placed by a photographer.
