Personally, I think this is the best photo in the challenge. It really screamed "pop culture" to me. Wonderful photo!

This is awesome! Pretty much the vision I get in my mind when someone says "pop culture".

this looks like mrs. scarbrd. She looks like she's painted on the wall. I like that effect, very appropriate for the challenge. 7

Great background for this shot! The processing emphasizes the "pop" aspect well.

Great! Like that the black and white of the iPod is duplicated on the model with the clothing. Then you have this wonderful, colorful graffiti background! It all works so wonderfully with the pose. Very strong image that should ribbon, IMHO.

very vibrant. i wish i could see what was playing. Air Supply? I would have cloned out the cord shadow on her arm as it accentuates the flash.
