*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

An interesting image that meets the challenge.

Your image is more of a normal interpretation of the challenge theme that judging by your commenters seems to have been lacking in most of the other entries. It is well executed with your model's hand positioned in the correct place to 'hold' the mountain in his hand, however, I think it would have worked better if you could have extended the DOF from his hand to the mountain and got that sharper. It would also have been a lot more convincing if he could have been looking to the mountain instead of the camera and having him out of focus would not have been a problem then. Instead of holding the mountain he could have had it between his fingers as though placing it into position within the landscape.

The image itself is a little too highly exposed although within acceptable limits it has enabled you to get a better exposure on the man himself but the mountain itself, the most important element in the image, has significant areas of blown highlights.

Anyway, thanks for your submission and apologies for the delayed critique, as they say, 'better late than never', or at least I hope it is, Sid. Please feel free to reciprocate on any of my images, I would welcome your feedback…

Good use of the technique, but the man seems to be out of focus or something.

THANK you for understanding the challenge topic the way I do.

LOL!

WE must be right. :D

I'm not voting because I'm so lost in not understanding the images... *sigh*

This is what I perceive as forced perspective.
