Robbed! This is just a hell of an image. One of my top picks. Probably would have fared better if the processing in the fore figure were not so edgy, but I like it that way personally.

ooh, really too bad of the processing, because I think it's so much better without the major-noise (or oversharpened? can't tell)

still, I like it. bumping up

A truely interesting photo. The boys eyes are a little over brightened and there's something going on in the right side into your shoulder that I can't figure out which is distracting ,but overall a very unique and creative entry.7

Cool effects.

The concept looks good, kind of distrubing in a way.

This has an odd almost creepy sense. I do like it though. It appears to be more than one image. I hope I'm wrong. 7

An extremely good artistic study with loving sepia to speak of deeper values in the human drama. Bump.

Nifty title.

I really like what's going on in this photo with you in front of the photo of the boy. I also like the tones but I feel as if the processing has gone a little too far on this.
