Congratulations!!! Thanks for the tutorial. Truly inspiring. I Thought this was going to get the blue. I guess many people voted down in disbelief of being a valid shot in Basic Editing.
Nicely done. A week ago I would have challenged this shot, but I now know about light painting. The bright background looks to have cause some minor difficulty, but it's still come out really well.
I never trust a man who claims to be an angel - but I must admit this is cute. I am hoping at the end of the challenge that you'll share how you did this. 10
Sure, ruin the chances of winning for the rest of us. Normally I try to say something constructive about each photo I comment on instead of saying crap like 'Nice Photo' or 'Cool' or 'My mother has the exact same motorcycle', but in this case, I am either too tired to come up with a comment or too cynical. Regardless, I guess I can wish you and your white shirt good luck...but why spoil this comment now?
I love the contrast between the 'good' side of the halo, and the distinctively mischevious gleam in his eye! - the shadow on his left eye really highlights this. The only minor niggle I have is the strong shadow cast on his neck.
Aweeeeee someone requested validation. They just didn't get the tech involved I suppose. I really like this shot, only wish there was more light on his face. Seems so much light hit the shirt (wrinkled), but very little got to the main part of the face (no catchlights in left eye).
Amazing shot. I wonder how in the world you did that. I hope you explained. I love all the soft whites. It goes perfectly with your photo. I really like this one alot. 10
Nice concept and execution. I think it could have been better with a black background, but given the "gee wiz" factor you'll probably get a ribbon. Great work.
And you did this with basic editing??? WOW! It is great. Love the monochromatic theme. The face is great - I even like the shadow on the right eye. Very clever. It gets a 10 from me.
