The Shapes of Disposition

Comment by DarrellGraves:
The top foreground is a bit distracting and my eyes keep wondering to it. A closer shot of the subject may have worked better.

Comment by Ann:
The reflection and composition are nice, but the light is a bit harsh, maybe bounce the flash off of an umbrella or something. And I hate to say it, but the volume knob is just disgusting, which really affected my overall impression of the image.

Comment by Kivet:
focus more on the screws up front, since that is where the reflection is i would have put more focus there

Comment by Dazmat:
Good idea and a simple shot. There's a good story here if only the bucket wasn't somewhat "blown out" - needs a little more contrast. But nice one.

Interesting composition, I would like to see the fairy more in focus.

Comment by GrayGhost:
Sharp edged backlight works nicely. Better focus/sharpness and subject brightness would help.

Comment by dang:
the bluriness, the light, and the placment of the pieces are all a bit confusing. but good use of light.

Comment by hideout:
Crisper tones may have improved this shot, the muted color just doesn't help the blur action of the piece, nor the shadow.

lite on white

Comment by SteveJ:
Greetings from the Critique Club:

Light on White challenge entry and yep, it is a light on white.

Technical:
A good square image using the maximum size allowed. Focussed for the top of the bulb and DOF hangs on to the screw fitting of the bulb. Lighting appears to be from on-camera flash and has left two bright spots on the glass of the bulb. It is very hard to avoid this without using off camera flash or studio setup. A simple, but effective setup.

Composition:
The simplistic setup means that the positioning of the subject is crucial because that is all there is. The bulb starting from the bottom right corner, leads the eye towards the centre of the image. A lot of people frown on centrally placed subjects, mainly because someone told them about the Rule of Third...it is quite refreshing to see a centre weighted image.

Overall:
A light bulb on polystyrene/styrofoam. Not the most imaginative image nor the only one to use the idea for this challenge. The misspelling of light in the title could well have cost some higher votes. It might seem picky, but the title is so important and I know, that 'lite' is the US way of spelling. The shadow under the bulb is a little harsh, but there isn't much wrong with image. It is a competent, clean image that didn't hit too many touchy spots with the voters. Sometimes simple just doesn't work when it comes to votes, so it's a case of learn and move on. I hope this is helpful and constructive.
