Well... I cut off the heads because I felt like it. After trying several crops it was the one I liked best.

He has his sleeve up because he had poison ivy and it was itching really bad. No one noticed he has a couple fingers in splints too. :)

Me, my boyfriend Aaron, and friend Emily. We are an odd bunch. Did a little photo session at this spot with beautiful trees but I was dumb and framed this one wrong (a statue was behind us instead of all trees) and when I wanted to take another one Aaron was done. The poison ivy was itching too bad and he wanted to leave. lol.

I thought this was amusing and interesting. I gave it a 7.

I can't believe that this photo didn't do better. This was my favourite from the challenge.

definitely an odd photo :-) odd trio - love the guy with his one sleeve up one down, the way you cut off their heads, the number. Weird for sure... but I kind of like it :-) I'm wondering whether you took the photo this way... or cropped it to fit the challenge? If you took it this way - kudos to you for prethinking the image. -8-

Where are the heads? A promising shot spoilt.

Doesn't please the eyes much, but it's a nice photo. Good sharpness at the top.

Daring and effective composition, perfect B&W conversion. Nicely done.

i wish you would'ce cropped out the OOF grass in the foreground but it's an interesting concept to cut off their heads. Is the one sleeve up intentional?

seems off balanced to me, which then again is odd in itself

Why did you cut their heads off? Takes away from the composition IMO.

cool shot - love the fact that you have three and you have cropped it 'oddly'

Interesting perspective. Why did you cut off the heads? Definitely an odd crop. Tones are very nice. Subject on the right looks playful with her hands up which adds emotion to it.
