Wow...for somebody who claims to relatively new at this industry you have a fantastic ability and unique style. Keep up the great work and I expect to see your name and work become world renown.
Congrats Justin! Its nice to see one of us young-uns in the top 5 :-)
Seriously we need to form some sort of group for all the dpc-ers under 21... some quick names i can think of are you, me, zoomdak (thomas), joey, konador (ben), nightshy, tranquil and annah.
I don't know what to make of this one! One moment I'm really keen on it...the next I'm not! Maybe is she was a little larger in the frame with a bit less negative space? But well done! 7
Really effective use of a longer exposure, and equally impressive use of the brain. Shows that there can be a lot more to long exposure than whirling sparklers or snaking car tail lights. Congratulations on producing this thoughtful, restrained, sympathetic study of your subject(s). 9
My favorite in this challenge. I just don't know what it is but I love it. The simplicity of the shot mixed with the force of an ocean wav and the bright red just does something for me. In short this shot "ROCKS"
8. As a compliment, I was at first thinking that this was a Heida shot, but it doesn't seem as dark or over-post-processed as her pictures are (no offense to her). I love the effet you've achieved with the surf. I'm not sure about her belly showing, it seems a little off, but may be because of the small picture size. Colors are fantastic.
Nice shot. amazing how the model stayed still for that long without any blur. Great colors and excellent clarity. Well done and good luck in this challenge. <8>
What strikes me here is the choice of format. I am generally not fond of the horizonal 4x5 format but this is a welcome exception, I think the format fits perfectlyt. I like the colours and the double sense of movement by the sea and the wind. Good luck in the challenge. -10
I love your use of primary colors. This is stunning. The subject is perfectly placed and the lighting is really good. Perfect use of negative space as well. 9
