this shot is very nice in B & W, I think if it was in color it would not be the same! Plus I love the way you have framed the object. By using half it makes it more interesting.....10
Strong compositional balance, good use of DOF, lighting results in a good contrast between foreground and background without causing any loss in detail in the main subject. 8
Nice composition and separation from the background. A different time of day may have been helpful, though. A little more shadow in the right places would give you more depth.
Very nice compostion and b&w tones. Like the light, blurred background against the crispness of your subject. Also, very good detail on your subject. Well Done.
Very interesting. From the thumbnail, I couldn't tell what the heck this was. I like how you've focused on the horn element; it definitely makes the viewer take in the photo differently. Instead of normally focusing on the face and then outwards, we're brough spiralling to the edge of the image. :) Very nice.
I like the title and the crop. The background is a bit of a bother to the eye, but it grows on me. Neat shot I like it. Good entry, hope you do well in the challenge.
This is ABSOLUTELY stunning composition wise. I'm guessing the ram is a sculpture? Extremely well done! I might have cropped a little off the left side, but it's not a big deal... I love this in black and white. My first 10 of the vote. Good luck!
