| This shot just has such power. From the expression on you face to the very rough texture of the make-up it just has a very tribal feeling to it. The lighting was spot on, as the shadows don't overpower your eyes. There is still enough to see that twisted thoughts are running though your head. |

| Really quite nice on many levels; its surely creepy, but the tones and textures are so interesting. The white is really quite interesting.The red in perfect spots. Perhaps to see the iris color would ahve been an intersting variant; but I could still picture this matted in black and hung 6 feet wide on the wall. |

I agree with Jimmy - this is an amazing SP.
But no, not just an amazing SP, it's an amazing photograph. Exceptionally powerful to say the least, this is a photo that I keep coming back to (and not just because I whited myself up) --- you should be proud of this photo Hanneke, this belongs on a wall. |

| After doing a thumbnail preview of all entrants I'll say this is definite top 10 / top 5 material (it's hard to gauge voters, I think they drink a lot). This is the most powerful photo submitted. Perfect. |

| this fascinates and it is my third return. Presently you have a 9 from me. It may go to 10 when I figure out why this appeals so much. Im' still thinking on this. Part of it is the unexpected. PArt of it is being able to relate to something so similar and yet so different from myself. Bump to 10 but still thinking... :) |

| Freaky! I wish there was a little more light in the eyes, but it also gives a a darker mood. I really don't want to look at this image any more, so I'm moving on =). 7 |

| This is very interesting. The textures of the painted skin is quite intriguing. I like the the head on pose. The little splashed of red offer just enough colour. The only drawback that I feel this image has is that the eyes are too dark. I wonder if a reflector would have put a little light on the eyes. JMO. |

| Cool. I like the small bits of bright color against the otherwise black and white picture. If it was selective desaturation in Photoshop it sure doesn't look like it. |

| Scary. I think that even though this is meant to disturb, we should still be able to see a catch light in the eyes (think of an evil glint in the eyes). I have a strong aversion to the sight of skin being covered in makeup or paint that dates back to early childhood but this doesn't repell me as much as this type of effort on DPC usually does. This is a good thing. I like composition and the texture of the peeling makeup. |

| Congratulations to the model for being brave enough to do this :) I'm not very big on the composition.. the close-up is possibly a little too much, and the lighting just a little harsh. |

| Good image, very disturbing. The post-processing is good, not excessive. You just lost some detail on the nose. Maybe the expression is too passive, the face - even though the model looks at you from below - looks too relaxed. 7. |

| This is not a beautiful photo and I don't really "like" it in the sense you would others, yet I find it captivating and very emotive. It looks like it would be on the cover of a magazine. I find the detail almost unnerving, yet it draws me to look at it further. I hope it does well because it deserves to. 9 |
