Technically this is excellent, so I think the reason for the "3s" in your score must be due to the subject matter that put some people off. Death, like nudity, are taboo for some. But the subject is a matter of taste, clearly. And personally I would add more significance to the high scores than to the low scores. After all, success will be based on your strengths, and the appreciation of it, not on your weaknesses. And great work isn't always appreciated immediately, or by big crowds. van Gogh was a clear case in point.
Sorry, I was going to comment. Extremely underrated, my vote was 7. Why 5 threes and 3 fours? Not to mention 6 fives? Maybe some participants did not like the subject matter, especially in the times of Covid. Great use of PP and great composition, scary.
this is AMAZING .. !! ..
what a brilliant image for the challenge ..
dont understand why you got so many low votes ..
either the colour or the black and white could grace the cover any good horror book ..
both edits are wonderful .. :)
