 I like this photo. I worry I may have been a bit heavy handed with upping the contrast/structure. I also worry it may be viewed as a shoehorn. I might be better off entering this in the Cell Phone Free Study. Oh, well.

Post challenge: Very happy with a top ten finish. thanks for the comments.

Hopefully he's gone all the way and he doesn't even answer to himself.

Well shot, good processing and I'm relieved to not see fireworks! A gorgeous B&W, a 9 from me!

Giving this my third highest vote along with two others.
I would have titled it "Answers to No One", but that's a minor quibble. This was the idea I had when the challenge was first announced, but I don't plan on entering anymore challenges, and couldn't find the appropriate nomad, for lack of a better term, to photograph. There's a sense he just doesn't a crap about the world or someone three feet away taking his picture.

something similar ran through my head for this challenge, but went a different direction. I like this, a glimpse of what happens when we aren't responsible with our independence.
