Brilliant concept - using a roll of film to make a photographer shadow figure. It took me a little while to see what was happening, but when I made the association I was delighted.
Perhaps cropping closer to the shadow might make the person catch on to the shadow figure a little sooner? Hard to tell.

your second photo looks very much better with the higher contrast and light, super!

Hi Roel, thank you for your suggestions. Will try it next time especially your point regarding the apperture, DOF and white background. Very helpful. Cheers!
Joey

Joey,
This is very good and as beginner to photography as you claimed you are. Quite amazing and very creative. I agree with Hugo when he said that it lacks some intensity of light thus failing to emphasize the bottom parts, and too much light would pass away the drama and softness. You should have done a little in between. Your decision to use f5.6 somehow reduced the depth of field which made the top portion of the tri-pod and the further end of the shadow unsharp. I didnt like the way you cropped the photo removing some portion of the legs, hence it doesnt affect the totality it. Likewise, I suggest you use a plain white background (i.e. paper mat) to give details of the shadow. Nevertheless, you have captured what you had in mind, and this is a great and imaginative shot!

Wonderul, creative shot! I love the creativity and unusual "pose of the photographer". In the small I saw only the photographer, bent over his camera. I didn't see the film until I saw the larger version. Quite excellent!

Hi Joey, I think that's much better. The pushed contrast reveals much more details, which work fine. Beware, though, as that also reduces a bit of the moodiness of the shot. Burning the top a bit might prevent that, I think. Thanks for your reply!
Cheers,
Hugo

Hi Hugo, thank you for your very constructive criticism. I did took note of that and I appreciate your recommendation. I tried to change the brightness/contrast and this is the result. Pls tell me if this better so this will be my guide for my next compositions. I'm eager to learn this art.
Again. thanks!

Hi Joey, very creative shot. Excellent use of shadows and objects, creating a dynamic image.
I only wish there were a few more selective rays of light creating a bit more contrast in the lower part of the image, emphasising the reel of film, and making the shadow of the film touch base, if you get my drift.
Very good shot,
Cheers,
Hugo
