I don't feel that the image conveys instantly recognizable decision. But I like your idea. I mean of course that I don't feel motivated to make any decisions... he also seems more preoccupied with a task than making decisions... If only we could see what he was working on too. |

I still like this shot, he reminds of someone I used to know! The reflection in the table is attractive but spoiled by the blemishes. The title is helpful in showing the choice, but was otherwise difficult to spot. clear sharp image, colours a bit bland with perhaps too much table and window detracting from the decision. |

This feels strangely familiar...
Horizon feels very slightly tilted, and the viewer might have gotten a better idea of the decision being taken if the crop had been a little tighter, so as to show more detail of the box and papers. This could have been done, while retaining the reflection, using portrait orientation. You can correct the horizon in Photoshop - hold the mouse button down over the eyedroppper tool until you are given a selection of three tools: choose the ruler. Use the ruler to map what should be a horizontal line on the image (eg the edges of the table) and go to Image/Rotate/Arbitrary. The correct angle should already be in the box for you (from the ruler tool) and you need only press okay, and use the crop tool to make your selection.
Although looking at it, it may be the table that is not quite straight to the window ledge.
In any case, I think that this should do reasonably well, as it at the very least shows a decision being made (unlike many of the others!). |
