this is a great composition for this challenge. i like the lighting and how the reader is visible over the books. i almost would like to see the shot framed so that the reader appears to be reclining on the pile of books. this shot makes it almost appear that way except for the top half of their body hanging in space.
i congratulate on a great composition and terrific idea for this challenge! good luck!
interesting! The use of lighting gives the subject a "floating" effect. I wish you could have used a sharper focus of the reader, to lure the viewer to the "bookworm."
7 - Good. Criticism; perhaps even a sharper angle and slightly better focus/detail in the books/foreground, may have made this better in my opinion. Not sure on the frame.
