I was inspired halfway while studying for my philosophy final paper to capture the essence of most students' fear of examinations. I got my friend to pose for me, and inverted the image in Photoshop to obtain the x-ray effect to make it more scary.

Almost anime-like, thie negative aspect of this photo definitely adds a dimension that would otherwise be unseen. It's almost as if you've gone into that state of shock where you're seeing things in the "opposite" way than they were meant to be.
interesting photo, takes some time to see that it's a book or a folder on the bottom of the photo. maybe if you would have shown more of it, it would be clearer. i don't think this color inverting effect really adds something to the photo. makes it weird and abstract which does not really fit to the "message" of the photo.
Without the title I don't think I would have figured out what you were trying to convey. You have a nice color effect and placement of the eye. Very misterious. A 6 by Autool
The negative (?) image is eerie. I think it may have been more effective if there was more of the book (?) in the picture. Right now, it kinda looks like accidental black bumps. karmat
I read your note about the book...But I think maybe if you'd included more of it it would have been more apparent. Colors are interesting in that they highlight the hair texture, but I think I would have liked to see more eyes, to emphasize the fear.
This is an interesting work of art. I don’t understand the title yet….I’ll work on it a few more times. I would have called it Plutonium. I like the way the out of place hair almost outlines where the face would be. It is very ghostly.
Good job on the creative concept and interesting effect. I liked this except for the dark stuff at the bottom. I don't know if cropping would ruin the shot or not.
