Critique Club feedback -

Nice simple idea for the challenge. This would work much better were it sharper. I see your camera settings show an aperture of F8 - this seems very narrow for an arm shot as there really isn't a lot of depth to deal with. The aperture probably forced you into that very slow shutter speed which then translated into a bit of blurriness throughout the shot.

Could consider playing with some different poses for that arm as well. Straight up, bent at the elbow, etc.

Good idea, probably didn't execute as well as it could have but you said it was a last minute shot and, yes, those don't tend to do too well usually.

Good luck!

I really like the idea here, with the single light source. However, it creates some very strange shadows across the fist, so it's hard to make out exactly what it is. Also, either the quality isn't very good, or it might even be slightly out of focus... I can't quite tell, but the details are not very strong. But very neat idea!

Like the simplicity maybe a just bit more definition of the bicept and less shadow would make it stronger.

Great idea! But I think the fist deserves a more prominent place in this picture. A different lighting angle (or another light above the fist) could achieve this.
