Photoshop - Snowboarder

Hey,

I'm no expert with Photoshop, so I was wondering if you guys could take a look at this:

and let me know what you think could be improved!

Cheers

not bad, looks kinda girly to me. Maybe you can make it a bit more extreme and sorta chaotic. Kinda X-Games-ish if you will

I'm not big on things just being a mirror image ... any way you could use possibly one side and then do something else with the rest of the image? I think it's a start - what's it for? Or are you just playing around with PS to get accustomed to it?

Pretty cool, I agree that it seems like a good base right now, it needs some more interest.

The mirror image thing is ok, but it would be nice if you broke that with something else, something that would be the focal point. I think it would create some more interest and improve the image a lot.

On a more personal nitpicky note, I feel like strict black and white should almost never be used. It's something that's used because of price limitations in printing, there isn't any reason why that image couldn't have a bit of color, even if it were only a little bit. Pretty cool otherwise tho.

matbe move the mountains to the bottom...you cant really tell theyre mountains at first glance...plus it might be a nice filler for the empty bottom area...but meh im not much good at design

The vectory elements are really sweet, but the photographic mix isn't convincing enough for me. Try making the elements interact more with the rasters to make the composition stronger :D
