i like the starkness of this shot--the gun seems a little off focus, but nice use of negative space.
10/20/2002 09:43:00 PM
a good B&W, well lit but the contrast is a bit flat
10/20/2002 09:34:00 PM
Fantastic impact! Great use of negative space. Its a winner-10 Natasha

A very nicely done photograph, but I've marked it down 'cos I'm nor seeing any real link to a Deadly Sin. Maybe Wrath, but that's a vengeful anger and this is "just" a pistol.

the framing feels off for me, too crowded on the left. but i like guns!
10/19/2002 04:01:00 PM
interesting shot, maybe sight end should be in focus to accentuate topic

Nice use of blanck and white. Great use of rule of thirds. I'll you a 9.
10/17/2002 09:26:00 PM
off center and needs a little contrast
10/17/2002 08:52:00 PM
very dramatic composition...simple but to the point.
10/17/2002 07:00:00 PM
I like your picture!
10/17/2002 06:23:00 PM
Super image! I do wish there had been just a touch brighter highlight somewhere on the pistol or finger to give the full range of contrast to the "print".
10/17/2002 05:50:00 PM
the negative space is really good, this is a powerful photo, great work!
10/17/2002 01:31:00 AM
very smooth black and white. lovely composition. ~mcmurma

I wish the lighting was a bit harsher for more of a dramatic effect, I still like it alot...subject placement is perfect
10/16/2002 07:57:00 PM
Perfect B&W shot.
10/16/2002 05:31:00 PM
Let's see if I can be objective. This is well done. I like the b & w and the composition but I would really like to see more detail in the gun.
10/16/2002 05:03:00 PM
so whats your point?
10/16/2002 12:10:00 AM
I like the simplicity of this image that results in a lot of impact. Great negative space. Image seems a bit soft. 8 Journey

Great use of negative space. karmat

Is that a 9mm? 7 JEM

Excellent shot... All I can think to say is "10" ~MyQyl~
10/15/2002 04:16:00 PM
WoW, a very powerful image, good job!
10/15/2002 01:56:00 AM
Good composition, and lighting.
10/15/2002 12:12:00 AM
Very scary.
10/14/2002 10:53:00 PM
Very scary seeing the end of a gun. If I don't score well, will you shot me? How can I not score well, anyway. Great lighting and clarity. Well composed....10
10/14/2002 10:33:00 PM
good use of negative space and nice lighting
10/14/2002 09:41:00 PM
Simple and effective, well balanced and enough clarity to definitely'get it'
10/14/2002 09:33:00 PM
This is framed well and makes good use of negative space. The focus is a hair soft - I think very crisp lines here would better carry the cold emotion in the photo. Still, well done. Initial score: 6; may be updated later. just-married

Well shot. Nicely framed and lighted. Cliche, but very well done. 8/10
10/14/2002 07:14:00 PM
A very scary shot, brings a lot of fear and I can definently feel a sin is about to be committed. Great job with the lighting too.
10/14/2002 06:16:00 PM
very nice photo
10/14/2002 05:39:00 PM
Great photo, but which sin?
10/14/2002 05:13:00 PM
Incredible photo! Technically superb...love the composition and negative space. The one thing that kept this from a 10 is even though it's of a gun in hand...wrath isn't just jumping out at me. Maybe if the hand were clenched more tightly I would see it more. 9 Lisa

Very wrathful. I love the angle and framing/cropping of this shot. I think that it is very nice. I am thinking that it might be my computer, but the gun is in really great focus, with nice coloring, but the hand looks blotchy, like it lost something in the upload, or there was some post processing problems. I'm not going to take that into consideration when figuring my score, because my computer HAS been known to freak out on some photos, but if you feel it needs explaination, feel free to email me. I do like the use of black and white here, and The positioning of the gun is very nice. Having been raised around guns my entire life, this photo does not disturb me at all. Great use of neg. space. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~

Thanks for aiming it over my shoulder and not right at my face! Good shot. Well thought out. Good composition.
10/14/2002 01:35:00 PM
This photo is great.
Really nice black and white, with a strong neg space background making the gun stand out beautifully.

Really great shot. At first i was going to say that it was too dark, but I think the darkness helps to strengthen the subject matter. Good job!
10/14/2002 06:06:00 AM
excellent shot... I think the negative space works very well here. I think this particular image would have even greater impact if the tip of the gun was in sharper focus and the depth of field faded from that point... good work :) - setzler
10/14/2002 04:46:00 AM
Hands in the air! Good luck.
10/14/2002 12:23:00 AM
Great composition and excellent use of negative space. 7 -drew
