Well, if anyone cares, this is way darker than what I worked on in psp7. In what I thought I submitted you can see the wall and the lower part of the old school room desk. Couldn't crop higher because then the window and glare would show.
oh, and this is the one that looks like a pencil point if you look at the thumbnail a certain way.
Clever, well taken shot… The spooky atmosphere created by the dark background in this shot is great. The pencil looks a little like it doesn’t belong in the picture, but the way it’s balanced adds to the spookyness… (9)
Good photo. i especially like the lighting and hope you will share this set up with us when the voting is over. The same set-up with different lighting and a different book might work well for the childhood challenge. =9 syamjonimi ;'-D
Pretty though a little too dark (I imagine it's deliberate). Too much black space at bottom for me, would have preferred more at top than bottom. 5, Kavey
Oh how I wish this were a bit more in focus, and a bit brighter. I am afraid that people (as I almost did) will miss the desk. I know, it's a pretty obvious thing, but if you're not looking for it, it could sneak out as a regular ol table. Also, the pencil could have been moved down a tiny tiny bit so that we would be viewing the pencil lead with the book as a background, so it didnt get lost in the darkness. I love the angle. wouldn't have changed that at all. Great shot and good luck in the challenge.
