Someone else mentioned a silhouette...I liked this one because it is an anti-silhouette, the exact opposite. Great job at keeping the main highlight within constraints and also illuminating the surroundings at quite a distance.
love the detail in the rocks. Wish the man was less blurry - may be due to light. Crop/composition very good, POV excellent. 7 - good luck in the challenge!
Very nice take on the challenge. I do think that if you cropped just a tad smaller maybe even going with a square crop this would have a little more punch. I'm not sure that that much negative space at the bottom is needed. I love the detail in the rocks and how the light effects different parts of the shot differently due to it's direction. Wish I could see this at 8x10 instead of 640 by whatever...

I want to like this more than I do. The problem for me is the focus. Your subject looks blurry, but the rocks, especially at lower left, seem better focused. Composition is really good. B&W works. Would make a great poster if it was clearer.
This is a realy good idea.
I think it hasn't worked as well as it could have as the subject is too far away. A little closer so more detail could be seen & more of the image
Nice idea, the contrast is too harsh on the model and not enough definition on the landscape. I think it's a seashore, but can't be sure. It almost looks like a naked miner descending into a mine shaft...
Interesting shot. I like the beams radiating off the light source and the pose of the model. The objects in the foreground distract me from the subject a little. They are dark enough to be mostly unidentifiable, but lit enough to draw attention.
I am torn on this image - technically the lighting is not so great but i love the effect of the compositionvs light as awhole. The way the light hits the rocks makes it seem almost like a tunnerl. which i just love. I really like that it is a male model too, i don't think it would have worked nearly as well as a woman. I think just a little more detail in the model and it would have done it for me.
I feel this would be stronger if the subject was just a bit closer to consume more of the space. Although I like the content of this negative space, it overwhelms interest in the subject.
