Good idea, but dont try to pull something really big like that! You will hurt yourself. And the rope is really not for something big :-)))))

tad over exposed. like the take on the challenge

Great Picture. Even though it is obviously posed it still really conveys expectation very well. One really wonders what is at the other end of this rope.

One of the better ones this week, possibly top 10.

a 9 from me.

interesting shot but for the challenge I would like to see some emotion...maybe a wider crop showing the face with a look of astonisment at what you are pulling would have jump this up more for me

Very good composition.
03/12/2004 02:40:55 AM
Good composition. Well done!

Another more unusual entry - so many images of people looking angry, scared, surprised etc at something off screen - this one is more original and a stronger image outside the context of the challenge. Light seems a little harsh - his hands are partially merging into the background.

Nice idea, well executed. I wish the lights on his hands were just a little softer.

Perhaps a 700 pound steer --- a reluctant date --- ?? Very nice composition with sharp detail and lighting. Well done.

Great shot, great idea, worthy of kiwiness :-) Not sure if it is his, but reminds me of some of his work - 10

Very creative and well done. Nice composition.

The contrast between the clothes and the white background is enormous. The rope and the top of the hands are a bit overexposed. Challenge met.

Great shot, fantastic framing. Looks like an advertising shot. really works.
03/11/2004 07:18:13 AM
This photo really needs a face with an expression IMHO.
03/10/2004 04:41:37 PM
Nice idea for this challenge, great composition, perhaps could be improved by backing off on the overhead lighting and adding more direct (frontal) light on the subject. - 8

great shot!

The one thing that strikes me as odd about this picture is that it seems like the arms should be bent more with the pulling action. Other than that I like it. :)
03/10/2004 08:22:28 AM
Love the concept and the execution. My only problem is the rope looks too puny. Isn't that odd? I wish you had used a thicker rope. Otherwise, I have only good things to say -- composition is excellent. Focus (especially on hands) is just a scosh (sp?) soft but that's a nit.
03/10/2004 03:29:47 AM
Nice idea and perfectly captured. One of my favourites
03/10/2004 03:29:07 AM
Great shot. I like the comosition and it certainly makes you wonder what is at the end of this rope
03/09/2004 10:52:11 PM
If his back was arched more, and leaning more... it would have been more powerful to me. Great idea, nice shot. 6

Strong lines and good interpretation. I'll bet you do well. Tiny bit of overexposure on the hands?
