 The Large mask is a wall hanging I got a $ store. I had the smaller masked. Attached the smaller to the larger with two sided tape.....

Is this a Mardi Gras mask? I honestly never knew so many interesting and different masks there were before this challenge. Looks a bit like a tribal wooden shield. Clear and colorful, good lighting. The isolation of the mask is very well done but I'm not sure I like the complete isolation like this.

It seems like you could have done a lot more with this idea. It's a fairly uninteresting perspective that lacks drama. There were some great colors in the masks, yet they aren't shown off to advantage with the black background. I suspect your title is reflective of your state of mind rather than being descriptive of the shot. Better luck next time.

interesting mask. I don't really like the plain black background though as it doesn't ground the mask in any way - it just looks like it is floating in space.

Funny title. The off-center composition doesn't add anything, so it's a bit distracting.

cool mask and effect, but the composition seems off

Great mask - but it gets a little lost in the black background - it's more like it's floating in a sea of nothingness, could also do with being rotated slightly.

Still a funky mask though :- )
