Creative response to the challenge. One thing that brings this down a bit for me is the lack of dirt close the eyes ... I know why you did that, but it kind of detracts from the impact of the image, and emphasizes the set up nature of the shot. 7

I really like this photo but feel it would have been stronger without the hand in the frame, as it takes attention away from the great detail in the face.
