This conveys to me someone struggling with the spotlight that others shine on them.Truly excellent shot , lots of emotion. |

Greetings from the Critique Club :)
Hi Kosmik...
I think this is an excellent example of simplicity. The negative space adds a great deal to that for me. The image itself looks simplistic, but the emotion created by the image feels quite complex. Being in the spotlight is a complex situation. Attention to detail when in that situation is critical and complex at the same time :) There is a feeling of desperation in this image... a sense of weariness... burden...
There could have possibly been another opportunity in this photo by movign the light source out of the frame as well... I don't think it would make any impact on the theme, but it could present a slightly different feel...
Excellent work as usual :)

I like the lighting here. I think it would be improved if you could have eliminated the spot from the shot though. |

It's wonderful... the bright light spot just steals too much attention. :/ Without it, I would've given it a 10. |

Very artistic. This certainly is not a simple shot to take but I like the use of black to convy the theme of simplicity. |

very very cool. i think it might look even better if the light wasn't showing. however, like it is, it's still a very fine shot. |

this is technically a superior image. great lighting , love the negative space here and the model looks great. I think if you were going for simple, you might have shown the face because, to me, the image as shown is made complex by my wanting to know what the subject is going through and I am not able to tell that with his head down. I'll let the technique out way that a bit. |

I like this image. IMHO I am not sure about your choice of cropping
The negative space on the left doesn't seem to work |
