5 hours at rollover. It started extremely well. After 8 votes the average score was 8.00, then fell to 6.50 and finally stayed over 7.10 for a couple of days. Since then the fall has been consistent and no positive votes more - now at 6.88. In any case a good score even if unlikely to get a ribbon tomorrow.
A very fun shot - I have to thank Alessio who's been a great model. I had 4-5 very good photos, but this fits better the challenge title :)

Thanks everyone for votes and comments :)

I am humbly sorry, Alessandro. I gave this a 5. Don't misunderstand, this is a strong, workmanlike, image … but really, when will you step up your game? You have so much creativity! So much energy! So much originality! When will you break out of the DPC (popularity contest) mold?? Will you show me your very best? Your most creative? Your highest style?
I have lived and worked long time in Italy. A country that values creativity and style. I love Italy as my second home, and in many respects my muse.
You're Italian, you have more to give, more to show, more to create!!!!!
Mio fratello, il mio amico ... mostrami il tuo meglio!
This is gorgeous, Allesandro. Congrats on the ribbon! My score narrative was much like yours, starting with a run in the 8+ range then sliding and wavering all week: I was at 6.85 with two hours to go and plummeted on only 5 votes at the end...
"I'm in the money..." Kevin could not believe his luck.Just 2 weeks after losing his job and a month after his divorce was completed he'd hit the jackpot. He had no idea he even had an uncle in Africa and to find out by email he'd been left $32m had truly changed his life. All he had to do now was send the solicitor $15,000 to cover the legal expenses and wait for his big fat cheque to arrive next week. He didn't have $15,000, but a short-term loan from Joey the local loan-shark seemed like a great way to get the funds, even if Joey had a strict 'pay-up-or-die' policy. "I'm in the money..."
