Hi from the Critique Club,
You asked for your shot to have an in depth comment from a member of the Critique Club.
Interesting shot, I am not too sure what you are going for here , I am getting mixed messages with the things in your shot.
There is almost an Edgar Allen Poe thing going on with your bird and books and light. Those are excellent, you have done very well to get such clean focus. I like the brightness of the light, it is over powering and in your face and I am getting a slight headache from looking at it all the time. I am not sure what message you are trying to convey with your model. There is just a blank look on his face but he has clenched fists. Is he supposed to be intimidating? If he is , he needs a facial expression and some depth into his eyes as they are just black black holes right now. Maybe a scowl would have helped mesh this whole shot.
This is definitely one of the more dramatic shots in this competition and the more you look the more you think and see.
Excellent , well done, I am off for some asprin

| Had you taken a photo of the bird, and the bird only, with the available light, I think you would've finished among top 40 or something. Now it's more funny than dramatic, but something tells me you went for that approach :p |

| It took me a second to get the clapper reference there - very funny idea, nice use of shadows. |

| I like the concept and the title. Good job getting exposure on the subjects face and some light on the books with the bare lamp blazing into the lens. |
