I gave it a 9, it is one of the few pictures where the "wow" of the picture is in the negative space. First you see the glasses and the tissue, and then you take a closer look you realize what it's all about...Thank you.
Good picture, great topic. I don't know if it is on challenge so much - the background is the topic would be the subject, wouldn't it? Just my opinion. I think maybe the out of focus faces is the neg. space here, in which case the glasses and tissue are not needed in the photo. Again, just my opinion - 6 MarkRob
It seems unpatriotic to give this one a low score, especially since the day holds such strong emotions for me. This one could use more stopping down to focus everything in the frame. Meeting you halfway, I give a 6.
I think the pictures that are supposed to represent your negative space is vital to the subject,. Without the pictures, then the message of the glasses is completely different. But, as a whole, it is a powerful statement.
This photo in my opinion certainly meets the challenge. The surrounding area is just as important as the object. The smaller pictures tell us part of the story... It makes me wonder now what relationship the person they are looking for is to the person with the glasses. Good job.
Damn. This one moved me. I was rating these and stopped at this one for quite a while. Very moving. Nice work, very nice work. ( I've rated this number two of 213 entries.)
That's very good. The thumbnail photo background really works as negative space as it is really the last thing one looks at. Good luck with the challenge. 8
I think this image is succesful in getting the message across. I like how you place the numbers and the pictures in a subtle way and use them as the negative space.
I like how you showed the dark and light contrast from the white tissue to the dark edges of the glasses.
This is a very nice tribute image... if the background is your negative space idea here, it is competing with your subject. If that is not the negative space of this image, I'm not sure what is... - jmsetzler
