Practice With New Lighting

Hmmm... I suck at giving advice on this kind of stuff :) I'd say you're on the right track, just keep experimenting. I usually have one light that's directly on the face and one coming from the side.

I can see the effect you're going for on the 2nd pic, and I like the shape of the light on the sides of your face. Maybe try making the shadows more dramatic and contrasty?

Day 19... BOMBA!

Wow, I tried to do a shot sort of like this for the sticky challenge, and it completely didn't work. I love the colour of the bubble and your eyes -- they work perfectly together. And the dark edges are great! Also the smooth textures of the bubble and your skin are perfect.

Good work! You've improved a lot since this challenge began. The DOF is awesome in this. The hand could be a *little* sharper. Personally, I would rotate this whole image so that the zipper is more or less vertical. :)

That is so creeeeeepy and cool! Inspiring! Love the negative space above you. I can't think of anything I'd change.

I like both versions! I like the various levels of light on your face.

The lights of the city make this magical. I love the muted colours. I might just slightly burn those two bright lights on the right side so my eye doesn't wander over there quite so much. I like the darker edges and the grain. :)

Does this thing even work? (let's see...)

I like all the different angles and lines in this photo. Like the others said, great DOF and perspective. The only CC I have would be to stop that lamp from growing out of your arm. :)

That is so cool! I think it might work better if the zipper was horizontal. The eyes have great expression. Good idea!

This is motion blur, not motion panning. Cool shot, nonetheless.
