thx all. i got the process idea after i saw the excorsism of emily rose...
tried to mix contrasty high fashion with some emily rose flavor :P but i dont like it so much my self just oher ppl. Told me to send it in.Also the only work i did within the timeline.
I didn't see this during the voting stage....I love it! I would have given it an 8. My only problem with it is the contrast may be a little too hard. It makes the colors over saturated. I love the shot though. I would love to see this processed differently.
The great quality of this for me is its very cleverly disguised complexity. First glance shows a very fine, contemporary-looking glamour shot of an appealing model. Second examination, however, reveals a sly quality of subtle parody about the main subject. Her pose, her facial expression, and even her odd wristband all suggest a whiff of satire. Then there's the sharp and confident composition, which once again turns out to be only the surface layer ... beneath it lie some wicked little details, such as the reflected legs and the puzzlingly impossible 'reflected' multiple images of the model. The lighting and the processing are terrific, too ... just bold enough to be avant-garde, but not so over-the-top as to become surreal. I think this is the most artistically ambitious and the most intellectually challenging image in the challenge, and I therefore like it the best. 10.
There are several parts of this photograph that I love - i.e. the model is beautiful, the mood of the shot in general, the reflection on the right , and the urban acid style/grunge effect colors. However, there are a couple of changes that would really make this picture more powerful - i.e. removing the reflection of her ankles below her, and the reflection on her left, then making her skin tone on her face a little less washed out.... All in all, it's a nice picture, very high "fashion".
No particular explanation. Just like this a lot! The idea and execution stands out. Glad to find a different flavour that's daring and different from the usual.
