Would have been scored higher if cropped more from left side. Subject is too centered. Wouldn't take much off, just a bit from left side. Hot spots on face are distracting. Love the flare at the base of the sword.

Not much emotion.

Too posed.

the fire kind of looks like an afterthought

I like the idea (not just fire like in many other entries :), but I think execution can be improved: maybe shallow depth of filed to separate from background, or even different background to make fire "more visible"; lighting of her face can be better

Scary

Very cool idea. A bit too bright in a few places.

I like the flaming sword, but not sure a pretty girl assasin and shiny leaves go with the concept very well. Seems to dampen the drama.

Lighting is a little harsh on her skin and the sword.

It's a good idea, but to do it in bright daylight wasn't a good move. A much darker and less distracting background would have improved this a great deal.

I would have liked a different crop or angle to this. It feels too much like a snapshot. Also, the glare off the sword is a little bit distracting. But besides that this is a great picture. The fire looks great!

i think the concept is poor somehow

The glare on the blade on too strong.
01/02/2008 09:15:15 AM
good idea. light is a little hot on the models face though.

I love the fact that you actually worked to set up a shot and make it work. As you can probably tell your lighting is a little harsh, but that is ok. The refelection off the sword is a bit distracting. I think you did fit the assignment.

This is a cool shot. I like the composition. I wish there wasn't so much light on the sword so we could focus on the flame.

Interesting photo. The glare of the sword is a little distracting and the flame is hidden due to the background.
