Good integration of boy & rock, good lighting. Reply »

Great diagonal composition but I think the boy blends too much into the background (I barely noticed him). The robot seems small and thus not particularly interesting. More robots (an army?) or a bigger (and brighter?) robot might be more compelling. A little tweaking could highlight the intended focal points and accentuate the drama. Reply »

author says: Thank you for the feedback DanLundberg. I made some changes and threw some more highlights on the rocks as to reveal the boy

Convincing image. I like the way the boy and the warrior/robot look at each other. Reply »

Thanks a lot guys. Though there were only two more entries, fortunately I was competing with CMYK46 if not there wouldn't be much merith imo Reply »

Nice Job! Congrats on first Place and Happy New Year! Reply »

I really like the notion of finding Eden. I think the composition could be more dramatic, however. Reducing the brightness of the cool framing cave would focus more attention on the garden. The Rule of Thirds would suggest moving what are now the centered elements of the garden to the left. I would also move 'Eve' as far to the right as possible consistent with retaining appropriate modesty so the waterfall doesn't look like it's cascading onto her head. Reply »

Good concept. Dan already gave some good suggestions, i can only add that it would have been nice when the constrast of 'Eve' was lowered, to merge more into the garden. Reply »
