Greetings from the Critique Club...
Hi Tejinder :)
I agree that the black spots on the photo are annoying. When shooting for a basic editing challenge, you have to take those things into consideration. Regardless of the rules, the image you present has to be at its best. You can't expect the voters to be lenient on an image because the rules did not allow you to finish the image properly. It's unfortunate, but it's true.
This is one of the few high key images with a completely white background I have seen that I actually liked. The photo is a nice study of shape and contrast. Even though it is done in 'negative', I believe it's actually hard to tell that it's negative. I can look at this image and see it either way. I'm not familiar with the inversion process using curves, primarily because I never invert images.
The voters seem to like the image. 5.9 is a good score these days. The only critical comment you received follows along the same idea as in my last paragraph.
Nice work :)
John Setzler

This doesn't look like a negative. I think that's going to wind up hurting you in the voting. The image itself is fine. |
