Webster: "Minimalism - a style or technique (as in music, literature, or design) that is characterized by extreme spareness and simplicity." Someone has actually made a minimalistic image without breaking the other photographic rules. Stayed with the rule of thirds, good framing, love the clock in the smaller frame that tells the time. Those that see will get it, those that don't get it should train their eyes to see, not to look. My only nit and it's minor, needs a little contrast, but it's minor. Good job!
Creepy! I'm getting a total flashback from The Ring off of this picture. :-) Actually, the image itself is an excellent example of either type of minimalism and works nicely for this challenge.
The lighting in the image is very flat, and as a result the entire image has suffered from it. It was clever how you used a mirror on the wall to reflect off a mirror you are holding to reflect the clock on the wall. Based on technicalities, I would only give this a 4, though you're cleverness has bumped it to a 5. Good luck.
I love the concept and I think you pulled it off very well. I do not like the reflections on the wall in the lower right or the cord. But I still gave it a 7.
I don't get the idea thoigh it looks interesting. The fram on the wall is far from my tastes and spoils the pic. The b&w convestion is washed out and there are too much greys. The angle on the clock is not very good. I would have tried to avoid it. The title does not influence my vote but I cannot get it either. I appreciate that you took some time for the set up and tried smth diff. Hope it helps and Good luck!
Amazing concept. Wonderful creativity. Only thing for me that subtracts from the photo is the artifacts at the bottom of the image that keep the wall from being perfectly flat.
