This got an 8 from me. It's an enjoyable image to look at. I like the shifting blur/darkness. Looks like something blocking the lens rather than post-processing.

The lighting is so marvelous, Mariuca. I love how it highlights the guy on the right. Perhaps it's a bit too grainy for DPC sensibilities, but I absolutely love it. And I especially like that I was there!

Not crazy about the processing here

Parts of the image look artificially blurred and parts have a lot of artifacting that looks like it was exaggerated during post-processing. Maybe the exaggeration was accidental, but if it wasn't, I can't see how it improves the image.

Love the eyes on both of them - they look relaxed but focused. That's what good theater is all about, I guess. Well done.

I don't feel the graininess helps this image, almost takes on the look of over sharpening or compression artefacts, interested to know what's going on though, would have made a nice B&W candid but then there'd be no green skin :|

I like the idea, the framing and the subjects. I am a bit unsure about the postprocessing. Blurring elements to make the rest more prominent is just fine and I see the point in keeping the faces in perfect focus. However, blurring the area between them looks that point very unnatural. However, I see how this, along with grittiness and very coarse application of blur, could be a creative decision.

High ISO shot? Grain is distracting

1, has no appealing features, fake blur, fake Grain or really low quality or massively over sharpened something has ruined it, and does he always have a green face?
