Feedback

For challenge number three of Emerge, we asked our challengers to create images using high key or low key techniques.

The use of high key and low key imagery is very common in the world of art and photography. Their popularity can probably be attributed to them being a relatively easy way to create a mood and elicit an emotional response from the viewer.

High key imagery tends to bring with it more positive emotions. Its bright, airy, clean look is a perfect way to convey joy and happiness.

On the other hand, low key images tend to have a more serious or dramatic mood and can even go as far as feeling dark and ominous.

Once more, we were not disappointed with the results, and the submission standard was extremely high.

Here as always, in no particular order, are our top 10 images for this challenge. Very well done to the photographers who created these fantastic images.
