Such an intriguing shot. You can stare at this and feel the emotions and yet have to wonder why as - long before you have even pictured the pic.. the dynamics of the image already captures the imagination. Nicely done
Great image and was my pick of the bunch... I was one of your 10's. Now that the challenge has closed, and I see you are a first time entrant, I worry that a blue ribbon with a first entry is almost a sure sign that a disqualification is on the way... sort a rite-of-passage.
Sure enough the image pre-dates the challenge period and therefore won't pass validation. Please don't be disheartened by this, and continue to submit excellent images such as this one. Welcome to DPC!
Great start on here and great shot hope this gets validated as he uploaded it to his Facebook cover photo on dec 31st so hopefully he reshot it within the timeframe.
Be shame to see such a beautiful pic get dq'd
Bet it was messy in the studio hehe,
Shame? What shame??
Well... he also posted this picture on Deviantart on the 30st of december or even before.
I wonder how old is this shot...?

Anyway, rules have to be applied because they DO actually exist here and it is not a shame to see it dq´d because without rules this "game" would not be so interesting.
He will have many chances to get familiarized with all of them. And there are plenty, do you agree?
Just wanted to welcome you to DPC - you started here on the right foot, with a blue ribbon on your first entry!!
Seems like you've got a great eye for this and have willing (or are willing to pay for) models for your work. Congratulations and welcome!
I really like the composition and colors in the image and feel it's well deserving of the ribbon.

Now that should do well. It's not just that it literally fits the challenge requirement but it is one masterful work of light, photography and MUA. My top pick.
