I quite like this idea. It might have been cool if perhaps the background and base were black, with the odd speck of glitter or something to capture star like reflections. Good luck with the challenge.
Strangely appealing for such a simple image. I like the way the background splits into two complimentary orange-yellow - I assume that's just clever use of shadow? I'd probably move the globe just a touch leftwards but not much at all. 8
In some ways, I really like this image. Excellent focus on the planet. Colors in background create a nice effect. I think there could have been ways to make the image better, though. For instance, having different lighting so that there is no shadow from the model.
granted, while this is representative of a small earth, there is no context that makes it more fitting for this challenge than for the macro/close up challenge. oh well. i would probably like it more if it was so centered and if the focus was razor sharp. not wild about light yellow, but it's a personal problem. good luck, keep shooting.
No frame of reference, does not meet the challenge. Compose and photograph something "miniature" in such a way that it conveys to the viewer that the subject of your photo is a tinier version of something that is normally larger.
