Cool balance of light and shadow. I find it interesting that you used a white backdrop, the dark background seems perfect and I'd probably have maken the mistake of taking a dark background from the start.

Awesome. The lean of the head toward the light works perfectly. Outstanding!

nice concept; lots of light yet the shadows lack any detail

This is good -- I think the concept would be better received with a different challenge theme other than the current one, but either way...nice shot.

A crop off the right and some off the top would have made this a 10. Giving it a 9, one of my faves so far.

Pretty cool effect you got there with the lightsphere but other than that this shot doesn´t do all that much for me, would have been so cool if you had the crazy scientist guy with the red hair and glasses and then this lightsphere, now THAT would have been cool :) Still very nice though and I gave this a nice score, got a 7 from me.
