Description Composition notes: I've placed the subject off-center in accordance with the Rule of Thirds, balanced by the background light in the opposite third quadrant. The subject is looking into the middle of the image which looks more correct than if he were on the right of the image looking out of it. The grey park bench adds to the feeling of urban starkness, which carries into the bleak cityscape in the background.

Pretty neat, I like it. Looks a tad flat though. Next time you should try to gausion blur the background just a tad, to give it some more seperation and the illusion of depth of field - it would add to the realism of the shot & make it look like it was an actual photo. Also the stock flare on the light seems to be a bit cheesy, try googling for stock lens flare photos, etc. for a more realistic look.

This is my first critique too, so don't be offended if I was too honest or blunt. Have a good one. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/sā€¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile)"/>

Hai there! No, to be honest with you, it's a photographic montage. I took the image of the model, but the chair he's sitting on and the background, as well as the "flare" effect on the light are all composited. I hope you still like the image though!

Of course, it's way beyond anything slightly artistic i could do
