Talya's Critique (Critique Club on break)
first off this is one of the few I gave a 10 for this challenge. Great photo, personally I think it should have placed higher.

Composition - excellent composition... good choice on using three of each hand. I love the sharpest hand as being the one that is just hitting the target! Great job with that. Also a terrific use of the body at the bottom of the pic.

Lighting - wonderful, no hot spots, even lighting. very nice job with that.

Background - I wish the background were solid black, and showed up solidly as black, that is my only comment for that. good choice of not using a distracting background. Excellent use of blank space at the back.

Fits the challenge - one of the best. even without the title, I knew what you were going for and that makes a great picture! I love the human interaction, it's really excellent.

Exposure - great job, everything is perfect

focus - the body looks maybe a tad bit soft, but thats it. Otherwise great job here!

Overall - I love this photo, it got the point across, it's well done, very creative, and great looking! Great job!

An excellent portrayal of your occupation. I love your implementation of motion in the image. It absolutely gets your intended message across. I would like to see more of these type of images as opposed to static tabletops. The black background is a perfect typical choice. In a perfect world I would wish for a little more skin texture or shadow play on the back. This is a wonderful photo..8 bullwinkle

nice movement idea, I'd have taken a couple more to make it a bit more even on both sides, if they both looked like the left then I think it would look really good
