IMHO, a bit more DOF so more details from the background could've come in would be nicer. Also, a background that also lends itself to texture but does not distract. You got the texture theme from the rope, but what makes this a 9 for me is that the knots imply strength in bonds/ ties. Also the frayed character of the rope conveys the strain caused by the tension/ tautness of these connections.
Or am I projecting my subconscious/ problems like a Rorschach Test?
LOL. It's easy to critique, harder to submit.
Good work. Hope you place high. |
