Great composition but the color is too washed out and distracting on the background. I would mask and darken the background a little to match the foreground. Overall nice work.

this is the best in your portfolio. good concept, well framed. the dully lit road is eerie. the green object is probably a mile marker. it's likely that the flash fired, and the marker reflected its light.

my guess that the green object is a road sign, they have ones that are shaped liked that and are green

I find the "tilt" to be amuzing. Hope the car doesn't slide on down the side of the highway to the left? Maybe the green object is a "highway angel"?

Hi Christian..Welcome to Usefilm and the "Web" Your very first. How much fun are you in store for? I remember my excitement at finding the world of photography...the computer..and the internet...It's only been since May of 2001 that I discovered the internet and the fun of photography working together. I was very lucky to have found Usefilm right from the very beginning of my journey. Still don't know how I came upon this site but am thankful this is where it all began for me.
Hope to see more and more of your photography.
Debbie

I really like the mood here. I like the selective focus, and the grainy black and white.
In retrospect I would have preferred a teensy bit more of his left eye, the whole side of his face is underexposed. I know that dark eye contributes to the mood, and maybe you meant to do that. You want to emphasize that intense, penetrating gaze, and a binocular gaze is more powerful, in my opinion. I would have preferred that his hand be in clear focus as well, and better lighting would have improved that also. Your background is mildly distracting, but you kept that nicely out of focus so it isn't dominant.
Christian, you've got talent. As this is your first image posted here, you've set a high bar.

The photo even without the light is very cool in its own right. But the light? What do you suppose it is?

Christian -- Welcome to Usefilm! I think you did a great job capturing a mood with this image. I find myself only glancing at the figure and then trying to figure out what the light is bouncing off of in the background. --Jamie
