thank you all... I was really sad about seeing someone cared more about the title than the photo, in fact I hate put titles cause they can help but aren't part of the work....
those letters were just the initial of the names of these friends who gentle posed for me... we were out at night after a great steak it was really dark... so my 1.8F and 1600iso was not enough, and noise reduction did the rest for the plastic look :) I'm happy for my top 20 of course

Ok I saw this during voting and was just waiting to find out what A. F. & G. meant, but I guess it will always be unexplained... must be a conspiracy. This a great photo and a very well deserved Top 20. I think the best thing about the image is the DOF. I love the shadowing used in the foreground, and the blur in the background. I think the pink defiantly define the background person as a girl which I think was key in this image. Ok looking at the image really makes me wonder are these real people? There sure is a plastic look to them especially the guy on the left. This is just a great image, I really don't see any area for improvement. I know there has been a comment or too about more focus, but I think it would take away from the subject. Great Job!

I like this image at once and one that I went back for a bump. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

i think the dof is too shallow here. i'd like to see the men in focus and be able to make out a little more detail on the woman.

I don't get the reference. Interesting study in Depth of Field.

Pretty sure I don't get the title, but I dont think I need to to see relevence to the challenge. Only thing I'm not crazy about are the slight halo's around the faces.

This might be because I'm female, but my first interpretation is that they have less than honorable intentions for the woman. It does give me a sense of conspiracy.

Great shot! Love the DOF, the greenish color cast, the lighting, the glasses, the angles of the guys' looks/faces and the red color of the woman's top. Really cool! one of the best I've seen so far, if not the best.

9 from me

awesome composition

excellent framing and good use of a shallow DOF. I have no idea what the title means. The yellow cast makes the men look kind of plasticky. one of the better that I've seen so far, tho
