Welcome to Photoreject, born out of my first attempts to enter my work in a gallery many years ago. If you read the title and are concerned if you are supposed to be here, fill out the brief, 200-page survey on page 72. Otherwise, please take a look around my blog posts of recent images of photography "tests" I am conducting as I branch out into slightly new photographic horizons. I will be explaining my thought processes behind the photographs and rambling on about this or that. Hope you enjoy!
This is strong. Good expression, and use of wardrobe (grey on grey). Maybe you could do some dodging to bring up the grey in the upper left hand corner so as to make that part of the background better match her shirt. This would balance the composition while also providing more contrast for her siluetted flow of hair, and make that mane pop! As it is now, the frame just kind of falls off to the left, but I think if you were aiming for a black to grey background gradient from right to left, you came pretty close. It almost comes across. So I'd say wave that darkroom wand around a little and alakazam, mofo! Or do nothing; that's always an option. Holla, jeff
