And I thought the upside down Martini Glass with the escaping air bubbles was fantastic. This is fan-tab-u-las composure, lighting, contrast, depth is soothing what else can I say!
Oh this is a lovely image. I really like all the contrasts. The lighting is perfect, really enhances the alone aspect. The marbles give an added interest with the way the light reflects off of them. Its quite beautiful. I do wish that the ones in the bottom right corner didn't show their green nature so much, and instead were dark like the others - the different color draws the eyes away from the main subject. I think its a great photo. 8
I don't know about loneliness or solitude, but the rock is certainly all alone. The stark contrast in tone, texture, and shape make this a striking photo. The symmetric composition works well. It's too bad the one face of the rock is burned out; the exposure for the rest of the image is perfect. Perhaps turning it slightly would have helped.
+Great composition. Good bold shadow under the rock. Nice green highlights on the edge of the marbles in the foreground and the white highlights on each one is very good.
-The two green marbles on the right corner distracts because of the bright green hue coming from them.
Mmm... :-) The contrast between the rock and the spheres are really fascinating! I love the lighting, too, maybe the tip of the rock is a bit bright, but never have a bigger problem, especially after this 10 points I give you!
I like the use of light in this image. Really helps the main subject stand out. I also like the graphic that the marbles create. The top left of the stone is too hot. I feel that if there was some detail in that spot it could of helped.
