Great character, however the processing is very dull - needs more contrast to enhance is fabulous face.

Lovely symbolism imparted in a very realistic way. Congrats on the new PB, but you'll beat it again quite soon, I'm sure.

Comment by JuliBoc:
Congratulation on your PB. This is a wonderful composition. The reflection on the memorial seems like the ones who were lost are looking back on the ones who are left without them -- a connection between the living and the dead. Perhaps that's what you meant by the title. Very evocative.

Why did the crane cross the waterfall?

The focus is not good for me. Looks almost like the photo was cropped too much and some detail was lost....

I am not a good photographer, I do not claim to be better than anyone, any criticism is meant to be constructive criticism......

This one definitely has some story appeal, and you've obviously done a lot of work on the processing. Unfortunately, this is a Basic Editing challenge and you can't use any editing which includes selecting individual pixels. In other words you can't use a brush tool, or the eraser or do any dodging or burning because that includes making selections. All processing must be global; ie affect the whole image at the same time. For instance, Levels is legal because it affects the entire image. Color range is not legal beacause it selects individual pixels for editing. So this would get dqed for sure because of the dodging and burning.
