this is either strong setup to make one think...or overuse of editing. I couldn't begin to guess which. I hope for your sake it is setup. comp is a bit awkward for a critique..
note: just saw you were validated. okay, umm, strengthen your comp.
Challenge: SHADOWS III
Description: Creatively capture a shadow Advanced Edit
The Evil Inside
Fit: Clearly meets the challenge 1
I am not sure that it does but there is a shadow!
Aesthetics: OK composition 1
It is moody for sure, but not evil. The shadows do not add to the image and it feels as though it could have been cropped tighter
Technical: Technically well executed 2
I cannot see much wrong with the technical aspects
Wow: Not special/ordinary 0
While I love the moodiness there is not much about this image that creatively captures a shadow, hence the low score - sorry.
Total Score = 4
interesting project, but the "eyes" are kind of hard to see - I would not notice them had it not say "photo has been validated" which forced me to look harder... I wonder how many people have missed the "eyes"?
I originally voted this photo lower. It wasn't until I got ready to comment that I realized what you were doing and I bumped it up a little based on the idea alone. Darkening the shadows and making the red in the eyes a little bigger and brighter would have helped it even more. The way you have it now, it's so easy to miss your intentions.
Very subtle... good (or rather, great) idea. Maybe a bit too subtle for the DPC crowd, and that really is the only weakness I can find... personally I like it very much.
