I dont like it much but and i'm going to be killed for the blow out over the breast it will have to do because the stupid kitten got in the good photos and there is no cloning him out.

We all know what the challenge title is. It is too bad that you could not take the time to be more creative with your titleing.

nice comp, nice lighting, nice b&w's, nice color, great motion, nice texture, overall nice job

I really like this. The composition is great. Nice muted colours. Evocative. Original, bumping up to a 10 and a Fav.

What a great idea. I wonder how it would have looked with a white floor? And the blurry bright spot on her chest is distracting. What about sepia ?

For this contest everyone who has the word âcircleâ in their title is getting a lower score. This is a copy and paste version that I am including in every photo that I downgrade due to the title. We as members of DPchallenge know the topic of the challenge â we do not need to reread the topic every time we reach a photo. If circle is in the title and it is appropriate I will most likely not down grade, but it better be good. I am sorry if you do not agree with my method of protest â but scores are all I have. (for your photo the title did not distract so no downgrade)

i love the attempt here. i wish the circle were totally visible, without the girl blocking it. i also don't like the extra red at the top.

I love the idea here. It domes across a bit dark though, maybe a lighter backgound to seperate the subject.

nice perspective and interesting shot ... I would have liked for the colors to be more vibrant and less harsh light on the model's chest

this shot would look so much better with the face in top right corner - for natural "leading" feeling of the eye. Great idea, nicely done.

Not the best pose... Are you trying to highlight the model's breasts?
07/06/2005 06:43:03 PM
I like this picture.

Two small quibbles: (1) I think the dancer's head pointing down is awkward, a 90- or 180-degree rotation would be better. (2) The colors either aren't bright enough or aren't dull enough. Pick a direction and desat a little for a sepia-toned, old-style image or increase for a brighter and impactful image.

Strange position. I can't help but wonder if she leaned to the side if it would have looked better to me. Appears you may have desaturated a little. Her skin tones are ashen at her throat and breast with the bodice of the dress lacking color. There is definatly a clash of colors and textures.
