#37 Idea C&C?

dlscott56

Trying to come with some ideas and shot this at my Holiday Inn 'studio'. Business travel is a bummer!

Should I keep trying or keep working on this idea? Your comments are appreciated.

I really like this a lot, has a lot of emotional factor.
I wonder how it would look if you cropped some from the bottom,
the hands seem a bit over powering to me, and maybe lighten the face just a little
(could just be my monitor though, hopefully someone else will chime in. Very nice shot

Wierd. I see a box with a red X in it.

Hmm, how about now. I just realized I had 'hide photo' checked in my gallery. I didn't think that affected links to it. Guess it does.

I like this very much.
Needs something in PP though (IMO).
I like the crop or how you framed the shot I should say and it definately fits the challenge, not leaving room for doubt.

Had a little time to work on this. Just some minor adjustments, any thoughts?

ok, my opinion, I liked the original better, I liked that one half of the face was shadowed--but I still think it needs something in PP--

Was it you that worked on Nikolai's texture assignment? I meant something like that---Just a thought--or some other kind of treatment.

But out of the two you posted my vote is still for the first--
Wonder what others will have to say.

Ok, now I see what you mean. I hadn't thought about that. Interesting idea. I'll see what I can come up with. Thanks.
