***Greetings from Critque Club***

You have an interesting photo here and after reading the Photographer's Comments, it's even more interesting. So, I'm seeing your nose blood? LOL

You've got good focus and Depth of Field here.

OK, about the blood. I know it's real blood now, but when it was being voted on the fact that it is blood wasn't very obvious. As a matter of fact, it looks fake. That's probably due to a slight vit of overtweaking of the red.

You have light fall of on your finger tips and overly exposed highlights. This comes from using an onboard flash at too close range.

Now, I want to finish this critique with a reminder to read over the rules. Color Fill Layer isn't legal under Basic Rules.

Hope to see more work from you,
Leroy

Next time, don't press so hard on the shutter release button! ;)

Watch your highlights and shadows too....

This photo is interesting for the way it plays with light and shadow while maintaining excellent colour.

Not a bad idea, but I think if you had pulled back just a bit and maybe less flash it would improve the concept.

Or just painted like is seems to be.

To pull this off you need something that looks like the cut line. From a technical point of view, this is over-exposed and over-saturated. I guess you are trying to emphasize the blood, but my eyes are drawn to the blown, yellowish highlights.

Seems a bit over-exposed to me, which kind of washed out the red. Making the red come out more would have made it more interesting (spooky) in my opinion.
