This is a very powerful image and I really like the lighting. I'm still learning about lighting myself so this is very inspirational. I like how your lighting helps with the composition.
interesting image.. i like shots you have to look at for a few seconds to figure out.. detail is great.. focus is tight.. subject matter poinient.. very origonal..
This is very poignant. Absence = silence - a permanent, jarring silence. A beautifully simple image with such a depth of feeling. I like the choice to make the bearer anonymous.
Wow, very powerfull image. it's a little dark, but maybe that's the point. i've only given out maybe 3 or 4 10's ever, but this is close. beautiful image, thank you.
Powerful idea here, and a strong image. Really good lighting. Do you think there would be more impact to the scene if the soldier's face was shown? Strong score from me. :)
I like the theme and mood of this photo. I think the darkness works very well. I also think it could use just a tad more exposure. Is this a female model? Great shot...
Of all the many enties I have viewed so far, this one, without a doubt nails the theme: What drives us to silence? A silent tribute for the ultimate sacrifice. BOL As a matter of personal taste, I would like to see a much crisper focus and a more pronounced contrast, especailly in the stars and service bars (but they are gold aren't they?) The softness doesn't fit here. But again. . . that is only my opinion.
My first entry was a similar shot (pulled at the last moment). Your shot tells a great story but better lighting would help - lighting is flat and a bit too dark - at least some part of the composition would be better if lit brighter than the others. (small nit but something about the flag not been folded crisply is out of whack)
