    Re: Soft steel

    That's pretty "outside the box." Which is a good thing, but ... It looks kinda fuzzy to me. The only thing that really stands out clearly is the foot. I'm not quite sure what you were going for here, but I'd try it again. I'd think about what you are trying to "say" and recompose and reshoot.

    Does that make sense?

    Eh...what am I looking at? I like the color and can identify the foot, but what is the black thing on the left? :-)

    Cheers,

    Re: Soft steel

    It is hard to see what you are trying ot say with the pic - is this a murder weapon and blood? I do like to see the white foot standing out of the red dress and sheet . Maybe with a focus at one point and then not so much depth of field - that is just an idea. I do love those three colors you got there

    Re: Soft steel

    This is a good idea, but instead of a foot I would have preferred a face+arm maybe.

    As for the sword, it is difficult to see really. I think the pic would be stronger if there was a reflect on the naked steel to spearate it from the hilt and the bed sheet.
