I think I would like to see the picture rotated to make the light switch even. Interesting composition.

division of the frame is very cool. did you do some burning on the light switch? the one on the right looks like it's in an unnaturally dark patch.

Your missing a screw on the panel...

Interesting shot. It tricks my eyes into seeing a tryptich (sp) photo. Creative take on the challenge.

I like the basic idea... the distortion and tilt of the door frame detracts for me. The light switch doesn't seem to be adding anything, I wonder if hooting from bit higher could have eliminated it?

I understand what you're going for here, but the image alone shows a disturbing separation to me. The fact that you used a male and a female of approximately the same age could indicate a couple. The separation of the wall brings a general coldness to the image IMHO and taken without the title shows a "destination" quite different from what your intent was. The cropping also seems a little awkward and my focus keeps shifting to the light switch. I think the choice of black and white is a good one, but it further adds to the "cold" feeling I get from the image. I think that with a different title, the statement made by this image could have much more impact.

I'm not sure I understand this, but it is interesting and makes you think, which is a good thing. seems to be too much sharpening around the guy, esp the head (halo)

the left hand subject could be gaming... ;}
interesting image, and well taken - though a bit unbalanced - good luck
