This is an excellent image in every way mood, culture, lighting, composition. I gave it a 10. It should have placed higher.

i think most people saw your image as off-topic. Imo it is an amazing photo that really captures the mood, part candid, part artistic/noir and film like and deep on many many levels.

This type of shot is usually not my bag, but I love it. The light on the gorl in the background is perfect and you are forced to work back and forth between the smoker with head down and the happy, party girl. Great job.

An interesting snippet of a teenage party, reminds me of school! I don't really think this fits the challenge, however, and technically there're a lot of shortcomings. The background elements are quite distracting, particularly that girl in the background. She really 'steals the show' away from the subject. Perhaps try a shallower DOF.

I like the genuine feel to this photo, but it doesn't really work in the challenge context and, overall, is far too snapshotty.

Good luck

Base Score 5
Good Color/Poor Comp/Good Proc +1
Total Score 6

I like the silhouette and the smoke trail...I would have cropped the photo different to put the silhouette in the upper right third...otherwise nice

I like your idea for this challenge and the mixed collection of people gives the image a candid feel.
Dream or fantasy there are plenty of ways to make this happen and you have touched on one.7

excellently taken photo. lighting that brings out the blonde girl in the background is kick ass and the sihlouette of the guy in the foreground smoking is amazingly done.
seems like something one would see in a magazine in one of those anti smoking anti drugs ads. And i love the green tones in the photo, very well done. Im adding this to my favourites. A different take on the challenge in some ways but its just such an amazing photo. 10
