Feedback
The negative space in an image can help to emphasise and balance the main subject, giving the subject room to breathe and preventing the image from feeling cluttered.
The intentional use of large areas of negative space to command attention is dynamic and can evoke an emotional response.
It brings a greater level of connection to the subject if there is little else to draw your attention in the composition.
Leaving empty space in the frame just for the sake of it being there is not what this challenge is about and doing that will rarely make a strong image - there must be a reason for the space.
We had another seriously good set of submissions for this challenge, so well done to everyone and especially those who made the top 10.
Challenge Brief
Create an image using negative space that enhances the story, mood, or visual appeal. The area of negative space should be visually pleasing, but not distract from or overpower the main subject.
