Ooo, very nice setup. Great play with light and shadow. I like the zigzag on the wall(?), as it helps give some balance to the shot.

More light on the models's face would work better. Good idea and composition. 7

Better without name. Nicely abstract.

Thank you Mr. Hefner.

This is by far my best picture. Technically I think I met a lot of my personal challenges of not using too much contrast, and keeping the reflections of the bathroom light off the glossy paper.

I recieved some of my lowest scores in this challenge too. I assume some of it is due to the content, but if there are other reasons please let me know.

I think there are quite a few that disagreed to the applicability of Hugh Hefner to the theme of Hero: (definition) A person noted for special achievement in a particular field: the heroes of medicine. In this sense of the definition I think this picture is applicable. Although, it really doesn't compare with the pictures of war veterans, which deservedly placed much better.

Thanks for the great responses, Brian.

Thank you Mr. Hefner.
