too cliche, not enough clever design to go with it

Not a bad shot its just that i think a little less on the light and maybe another angle coold have improoved the pic a bit... Good luck...

Like the idea of showing light thru the lens. I think you have too much wasted space in the foreground.

clever concept. Just think,that AE-1was introduced 31 years ago!

great idea. overexposed area above the camera possibly a bit distracting though

Don't grasp exactly the meaning here. Do you mean 'through the lens' because it's broken? Please explain to me what you're saying and quote my comment so I can find the photo again. I've voted it rather low at the moment, but really want to know if that's correct or not.

What I liked the best - the use of backlighting. The biggest problem I see is the glare created on the camera itself. I'm not sure if you used a flshlight or if the contrast between thel light and dark were too much, but your shooting camera couldn't process the light.

Interesting concept. But the light on the top of camera is distracting and blowing out part of the prism, could also use a little more contrast IMHO.

Bright spot.

This happened to be the first 35mm camera I ever owned. Me and my brother got them for christmas as teenagers. It took some really good photos. I like the light coming thru the back to the lense. Not sure what the object is in the rear of the photo, its a tad distracting. But since its a Canon.....ill overlook it. LOL

the reflection takes away from the concept

great way to capture the light. looks like it's alive.

Interesting idea however the bright light behind the camera is very distracting.

This is a nice idea, however... The light is visible in the background laying across what appears to be a bed?!?! For a better composition, the light should not be visable at all, the camera should be a bit closer and fully in the shot and the lens cap should have been removed from the frame. Also, fill-flash or 2nd light source in front of the subject would have helped to bring out detail on the front of the camera. I hope this is helpful.

This has a lot of potential.
