I have to say honestly that I'm not too fond of one's particular style always getting voted highly but this image is fantastic. It's unique, stands out from the rest, is technically flawless, goes against thr grain, etc.... My kind of image! He looks like Johnny Knoxville gone wrong. Or worse than he already is.Message edited by author 2005-09-19 11:37:55.

Frankly I hate this photo. I am sure it is because it is so well captured and presented that it stirs such an intense emotional response in me. It deliveres an unbelievable emotional payload and I admire you for capturing it. So even though I don't like it, it is among my top picks this challenge.

Don't mean to offend, but this shot kind of creeps me out - just gives me a strange feeling. Nevertheless, it's a very unusual portrait study, executed well, and it demands attention. I don't "like" it, but am scoring it high because it does deserve it.

Face is great,but too much dark at the top and too much wood at the bottom. It would have been better for me if his face was floating in a sea of darkness.

If you get a horrible score, take it as a compliment. I jumped and said "EW" out loud when this came up. It is difficult to look ate, much less score. Be interesting to see how many people pass without voting. Very disturbing and uncomfortable image.

If this doesn't win it'll be an absolute travesty. Amazing shot - brilliant use of negative space and the lighting is incredible. I like how you've given the head a 'severed' feel and the model expression is brilliant. This is one of my favourite DPC shots ever - great work.

The post processing you've applied to it, is just perfect!
