This is really out of the box thinking and I love it! Although I can't see this in the pages of Vogue, maybe Outdoor Sportman! LOL! Your comp, colors, lighting are great. Well done!
After I flew over NO one night last month and saw the amount of the city that was STILL covereed in darkness, I somehow have a hard time being objective about this image. I feel it is supposed to be a tongue-in-cheek sort of image, but it would be like giving water wings to the Tsunami survivors. Sorry for the rant.
On a technical note, the background is too close and it is too washed. The shadows that are cast seem fake, but that is just an element of contrast reducing the shadow gradient threshold.
