Ick - that is a face only a mother could love. the blue eye is creepy and the irregular markings on his face make him look distorted. Odd how one side of the photo is cool blues and the other warm yellows and browns - adds to the mis match. If this were in a challenge it would likly score low. YOU can see his charm and personality and livelness, but I cant see it in this portrait of him. |

David Bowie eyes... you have exaggerated the effect by putting so much emphasis on the eye of sky. the earth-eye is rotated half out of view. The result is disorienting in a Cubist-painting sort of way. I see two dogfaces, one for each eye, that don't quite match up. I like that effect.
But maybe that big hot spot on the top of his head is too much? It draws a lot of attention to itself. I realize that some of the detail is probably forever lost, but you can still make it less bright (maybe burn it), and brighten up the rest of the photo.
But even just as it is, I find this image compelling. A great abstract jumble of black and white shapes surrounding this one big glowing eye. |
