Although this is a black and white challenge I chose to set myself appart. I personally think this is a great portrait and it fits the criteria. The criteria is not for a 100% black and white image. Its simply black and white portrait.

Anyways. To anyone who gave me 1 and 2. I would like to know reasons for your voting other than the blue in the image.

Only marking it less than 10 because of the inclusion of colour.

Focus too soft ... doesn't quite meet the challenge of B&W Portrait for me. Sorry.
01/11/2007 11:05:08 AM
nope, usually I aint strict on `does not meet challenge`, but in a Black and white challenge, I expect it to be at least Black and white..1
01/11/2007 07:15:36 AM
Not B&W.
01/10/2007 08:21:56 PM
Not B+W

Adding color to this definitely puts it in the "does not meet challenge" category.

Personally I can't score layer masked desaturations high. Sorry.

I hate to be the one to do this....especially since I considered a similar idea with my photo, but was advised against it....but I'm sure you already have comments saying this is a black, white, and blue portrait (with a touch of green) and not a black and white portrait.

Technically, it's a great capture. Perfect lighting, great focus, good shot. It pains me to vote this slightly lower for not meeting the challenge (don't worry not that low.)

I am probably not going to be last to say this. Black and White...the challenge doesn't say a thing about blue. Sorry.
