At first I wasn't sure how it was doing as poorly as it was, but after a few comments I completely understand. My take on the challenge was to have the mask represent Drama, like plays and take a different spin on the challenge. The actual drama in the photo wasn't necessarily there, and I understand The mask itself could have been a little better done to demonstrate my take. I still personally enjoy this picture, whether or not it got its point across and whether people thought it met the challenge or not.

Nice idea but the mask is maybe a bit too everyday for this to really score well. Good lighting set up - If you'd cropped this shot to the area just around the left eye of the mask it might have bumped it up on the dramatic scale!

Love the starkness (hope that's a word ;-).

DNMC - Not the least bit compelling. Please review challenge description.

Good graphic composition - the crop is perhaps just a bit tight
