Great idea. I would like to see more separation of the subjects and the background.

Comment by Kavey:
Not sure about lighting but the content is strong. You have managed to get quite some anguish into that expression. Your frame is so narrow as to look more like a cropping error than a deliberate border. I'd widen or remove it, personally.

This is a very powerful image - the eyes are so expressive! Great concept and nice execution. At first look, I didn't like the harsh lighting, but now I think that it assists the emotional impact of this photo. This would have been a great entry for the Conflict challenge. I hear the voices yelling (therefore, detracts from the silence theme), but at the same time I feel the struggle to remain silent.
