You got a 4. Since scoring in this challenge was about the DPC norm that indicates the group thought your image "sucks". Since an Arizonan got the blue in that challenge then voters obviously got things right.
It is likely they thought it was a chintsy, last second setup and oversmoothed by noise reduction. I liked the composition and felt the noise reduction, though overdone, supported the image concept. I gave it a 7 which in my world means it is average. It met the challege and does not have any super serious technical defects. Reviewing it again doesn't give me any reason to change my mind. :) |

I, personally, think that the soft focus and the darkness works perfectly for this image. It makes me feel like a person seeing this IRL and about to exit the room QUIETLY so he can crash. I think the blend of tones from bottom to top and the softness of the blend is SUPER. I disagree with every negative comment that was made during the challenge. I would be proud to have created this very real image ...

Points for creativity, but an open mouth isn't attractive unless you're a dentist. |

Sorry, but this is too dark and just not that interesting to me. |

Interesting take. The hand being so large and lit up in the foreground distracts, however. |

I like the skin tones and the way the hair blends into the background. |

The crop is a bit too tight. |

Too much like a snapshot. Remeber that lighting is pretty much everything.. aside from focus. After that, the 5 rules and the secret 6th rule of cutting off limbs when they shouldn't be need to be followed. But I really would start with lighting and work from there. |

Somehow this seems to me to be completely lacking in the "wow factor" department. Somebody gorked out in bed with their mouth open? I like the softness of the image and there seems to be very good coloring in the skin tones. |
