Definitely eye-catching.

the proportioning of the spaces is pleasing. by blurring the boundaries of the picture, the vignette helps to 'expand' the spaces at the sides as well and put the viewer's focus on the subject

clearly shows that the rule of 3rds doesn't always apply. nice one dude!

i wouldn't use the word 'fake' to describe it. it's appropriately applied to accentuate the surrealistic distortion of the scene.

seems like the student is quite stressed by school work.
haha

nice work nonetheless.

That is a great shot ! The blurred background really brings the student out. The part that the person is staring at is half-hidden, adding mystery to the shot... hence there is room for the viewer to explore... great work !

good concept, average execution. all it needed more was to have the upper opening more in view and perhaps a tad little overexposed to blow out the details.
the vastness of the room certainly overemphasizes the loneliness and opening represents hope in my mind.

thanks.
