A very sad and poignant image. These type of shots, of which there were a few in this competition always makes me feel sad and guilty. This after all is the message the photographer intends to portray. This one stood out from the others with the level of detail, the skin texture and hairs contrasting against the black background. A strong message, well done and congratulations on being in my top ten selection.
This image certainly captured my attention. A really great composite, which the more I study the more I can appreciate. The level of technical skill and attention to detail has produced a work of art. Firstly, the concept is great. the eyes in the distance and the eyes looking at you. The different skin tones making the outer layer more mask like and the inner layer more the true self. The detail in the mask and the separation from the inner is outstanding. The detail in the shadow from the mask giving a 3D effect. Great job, well done and congratulations on being in my top ten selection.
A well camouflaged dog contained in his basket. This image appeals because it looks so natural. The dog in a deep sleep surrounded by his many toys. The colours are bright but harmonise together well. I like the composition, it works without showing all of the basket, and the dogs position strengthening the curve. A restful and appealing image. Congratulations on being in my top ten section.
There is feeling of mystery and intrigue with this image. Why is the model wearing a leather cap and goggles? The photographer explains in his story behind the image. Even with this explanation it still has a surreal appeal. The lighting, composition and expression on the model's face are all excellent. Well done and congratulations on being my number one selection.
