DNTM Photo 10 Critiques

This top 6 makes it really hard to pick top and bottom photos. This week it's clear who the top photo is, but everyone after that it was so hard to pick. For my picks they really came down to the fine details in the photos since everyone had such similar backgrounds/styling. https://kovaze.com/blog/98599 AngieKStan: Your close up in this photo is stunning. The styling of the outfit is very on theme and gives high fashion editorial, but the rest of the photo is lacking. The fire rings are burning in your hands, and the ground is like a molten rock. It’s a good photo when you look at it quickly, but the closer you look it has too many minor flaws this late in the competition. ohEmgee: an interesting take on the theme. I think this was like 80% of the way there, but I think it would have been better as a full body shot with slightly better angles in the body. Your leg being pointed toward the camera makes it look pretty large, and since you are cropped at the knees you don’t get your full length. Desh: I appreciate that not everything in your image is on fire. The styling is fun, and I think the picture at a glance is striking. I think the pose could have been more fun, maybe see you juggling those fire sticks, but overall I like the photo. However, the longer you look, the more details are really off. Your left arm is cut in half and looks really strange, and your leg that is under the other leg is also very abnormal. At this stage in the competition those details matter. Gabs: The face is fierce and intense, and I like the pose. Like some of the other photos this is great at first glance but then a few things stand out the longer you look. Overall, a downside is your outfit and styling almost blends into the exact background so it all kind of mushes together without any contrast in it. It’s still a good photo but I would have liked to see something make you stand out a bit more relative to the background. Then the small details: is your arm burned off? Is it a sleeve? And then the fire is burning your hair. Face 12/10, body/styling/background 6/10, details 5/10. Fiji: well this is a stunning photo. The styling is amazing, the pose is great, and the fiery whip is fantastic. I would have liked to see your other hand not get hidden behind the fire, and the whip gets a bit too close to your body in the image I would have liked to see it appear a bit further in front, but not nearly enough to take away from how stunning the photo is. jordie: This is a cute action shot. You have managed to capture a great face shot while in motion and that is difficult to do. You are pointing your toes and giving length. It is a tough thing to be pointing your armpit toward the camera and still look beautiful. Make this a high end deodorant ad. As much as it is a good photograph, the pose is almost a bit too athletic for top model. It gives top athlete who did a photoshoot, but I’m still a fan of it because the fine details were all there.
