I like the mystery involved. A little unnerving which is what I should be feeling.

Stopped me in my tracks. As well as its obvious interest of the face versus the hand, there is a wonderful puzzle in all the shadows. Ultimately it does have a contrived feel, something merely theatrical rather than something authentic, but I like it anyway. 8. Thank you.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: I do like the image but I'm finding it hard to articulate why. There are many effective elements, the hand, the uber-blurry face, the shadows, the subtle lighting behind the figure, the overall scene shrouded in mystery - all very effective.

Critical stuff: You know I like the elements - I'm not so sure it all hangs together though; I like images with a story and although there is plenty of mystery here, There is something not quite working for me - I wonder if it is the lighting on the left, the brightness undermining the potential menace of the right side.

Overall: Intriguing, an at least partially successful image (for me) and certainly one I've been pleased to meet.

With the anonymous face and strange shadows, this is haunting photo.

how creepy. love that you can see so much really with so little light. that black square with the faint red light around it has me wondering.

This is seriously creepy to me. The big shadow looks like a severed head and the indistinct figure in black could well be an executioner =:-O

There is so much happening in this image that I like. The face however is just a little bit too blurred for me. The hand seems to be missing a finger to me which adds so much to the story. Overall this is very interesting.
