Supose you are using the over-contrasting as some effect but I dont like it very much. Also I think that the frame is to thick, think people have to go careful on them.

Focus is not wuite on, and the flas blows out the face too much. Other lighting could improve the image.

Slightly disturbing. Jarring composition.

I like the angle of the face, etc... the only thing I don't like it the out of focus look to it... 6

Exposer seems off, seems out of focus, I like the idea and story(guessing) behind it.

Whilst I do sometimes like the mood that harsh lighting can add to an image, I think it's overdone in this case. I do like the composition - the angle of his face and finger and the cropping choice work well.

yet another 'finger over the lips' shot.. hohum.. picture is washed and over exposed..

I like the pose and composition. Face and hand out of focus, but shoulders look great! ;) Harsh lighting on face and distortion make for interest, but theme of silence could be explored a little deeper. Keep it up. :)

Your framing, composition and idea are all good, but the overexposure on the face is too distracting.

The artistic approach doesn't make this photo all that much better. I like it, but it's still just a guy 'shushing'. 5. [the direct flast would normally suck royally, but it works here]

I think the face is over exposed and the black border pushes the image to the background while it remains in the foreground.

On a positive note, the composition is good with an interesting viewpoint to the subject.

Just an excellent photo. For some reason, i really enjoy the fact that is photo is not sharpen. Good stuff!

Great idea! I would like it even more if the focus was better and the face less exposed.
