This image fits the topic so much - its poor pain of being lonely and feeling naked. Very good job.

Well done

jeninja-inja (Jenine Lindeque) added a critique 1 year ago:

really like the grade - the fact that the green is so rich and the skin tones are kept clean. Decadent!

This one is kind of scary but the mood of this picture really hits you.

I love it !
Less saturation maybe and it will be perfect to me.

Too dark for me. I don't think solitude is so distressing.

kadenajack (Jack) added a critique 1 year ago:

I agree with moktoipas. Solitude is usually connoted as being peaceful and restful. Perhaps it's a language barrier thing that would lead you to interpret it in this way. I would characterize this as distress or angst.

It's a powerful image though. The only improvements I would suggest are a general lightening and perhaps to crop out the pipes at the top.

thanks for your comments
kadenajack, you made the same comment in an older photo. i understand your point of view but you should read what Sher said : "In my dictionary, the definition of solitude is "the state of being alone, separated from other people, whether considered as a welcome freedom from disturbance or as an unhappy loneliness.""

i tried to remove the pipes at the top, i didn't like it whitout them, but thanks for your suggestion.

Antoine, I like it just the way it is. Including your representation of Solitude, which can be interpreted in so many ways.... Instead of worrying about semantics, I have to say your interest in the subject and the framing/presentation is fantastic. How solitary this person is was so well presented with your tucking him into the left corner of the dark empty room (it seems like such a small room - but so large at the same time because of how small he seems and the dark colors). The pic speaks novels to me obviously and is a favorite. Thanks for sharing it.

I love the surreal effect of the exaggerated saturation, and you did a great job of drawing the viewers eye directly to the subject while maintaining a sense of place.
