Very cute and very colorful! I see your waldo. Focus is pretty good, but some kernels are more distinct than others. Lighting is good. Overall, I like it! 9 Swash

A bit of chromatic abberations in this shot. I use a decrease in Magenta saturation to deal with the ones I get with my camera. Good use of the challenge.

Great idea, loads of colour pity about the Waldo head I would have preferred a real eye or something human

I think that this picture would have been done very nicely if there was a real person in it instead of a little paper cut out. Nice Work

Note : I don't think I can do 1000 words, but I'll do my best :)

Composition : I'm a big fan of strong, geometric lines and there are plenty of them here. My 1 small nitpick is that on the left side the dark line competes with the border. It seems to add more weight to that side and throws the balance a little off. But that's just to my eye.

Exposure / Lighting : There is a nice even distribution of light here. I like the fact that the darker walls to the right have the brighter windows.

Focus : No issues here.

Post Processing : As many of the comments you received pointed out, it certainly has a "painted" feeling to it. While I am more of a fan of photos looking like photos, you did not go overboard with it to the point of being more digital art then photo, but you certainly flirted with the line. I'm also not a big fan of borders, but you did yours very well (with the exception of that line on the left).

Challenge / Wow : Clearly meets the challenge. "Wow" is in the eye of the beholder and clearly you Wow'd some folks here. For me, the grain got in the way (but what do I know :)

My opinion : While I loved the lines, I wasn't bowled over the grain. I know it was intentional and artistic. But it just didn't work for me.
