OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy). I'll be picking one of these images for the Mu (most underrated) award:
Positives: A very interesting feel here, not sure whether this is inside or outside - reminds of a recreated street in a museum of some sort. The lighting is quite strange (in a good way), both flat and with depth at the same time. The overall subject matter confuses just as much, there is a lot of mystery in the figure, especially in relation to their position with respect to the rest of the scene.
Critical stuff: All of the above really, the flip side of the mystery is that the image does conspire to confound and thus frustrate a little.
Overall: Made me stop, made me think.... Do I like it? I still don't know. |
