cool shot, but needs something to tell its story; as is, it's more art than pj.

colours look washed out to me and the fish eye distortion prob wouldn't go to well on the cover. The connection to the challenge is in your title not the photo. However as a photo I quite like it and under basic editing it would look great

just following the comments here and wanted to note that this without question satisfies the 'negative space' element of the challenge and would fit into any reasonable person's concept of 'negative space' as an artistic tool. While its not as drastic as some other examples, your subject takes up <25% of the image and the rest is pretty much uniform color, it really works for this image. Congrats on the high finish!

Congrats on a captivating image and top 10!

I'll pipe in here to say that it looks a bit "overprocessed" to me, too. But as you've already noted, it's your image to process as YOU like it, and you obviously impressed enough people to do very well in the challenge. :) At any rate, that would've been a minor consideration had I voted on it.

Well, I loved it - gave it a 7. Yes, the processing is a little distracting, so it wasn't a 10, but his expression, his pose, and the colors are all great!

Over processed for my taste.
