From the critique club.
Hi,
I like the image and the concept. Selective focusing is excellent and I cant think of something that can improve it.
If I look at the composition I think I have somethings to say. This is square framing and it goes perfectly well with the concept. To me improvement may have been possible by some assymetry in the image. The eyes bisect the frame horizontally and the nose verticaly. Except of the expression in the two eyes there is little assymetry present which provides the viewer with half the information than the canvas can hold. The face cannot be made assymtric (unless of course you beat him up) but the positioning can make the negative space and the shadows assymetric creating an interesting image. I would bet that this might score a ribbon with a little assymetry. I can also think of the same image having only one side covered with dirt, maybe the caption would change but impact might increase.
My criticism is based on my meagre knowledge of composition and photography I would be happy to have any feedback regarding the improvement of the critique.
With regards
Kausik |

| Nice one Ragga! The expression looks so real, having met your handsome hubby would never have recognized him from this photo :) |

Awesome, Ragga! Is that handsome man -- even covered in dirt -- your hubby? What a great sport, and impressive model :)

| The technicals are excellent in this photo. So is the creative, but the splotch of blue in the eye seems too unnatural and kind of over the top. |

| Ewwww! Nice eye though. I think he needs more dirt on himself to really look like he is "emerging" from it. ~7 |

| Well, he doesn't look dirty enough to have just emerged. I'm looking for real dirty. It's a nice capture though and I like the expression. 6 |
