Well you have already done something that some others have strived to do but have failed...you have won a brown ribbon...and now you are in the club...I have won the brown ribbon myself...take pride in it...the only place to go now is up...and that's my best pep-talk I can muster right now...so deal with it...but really you'll be fine...Welcome to DPC
What exactly is this meant to be? I can't see any connection with indulgence, I can only assume that you want to get the brown ribbon and I'm only too happy to help.
If only a little bit of this shot was in focus, would have made a huge difference. I sense some very good colours here, but it's to out of focus for me.
Hmmm, I've stared at this one for over a minute now and I'm just not seeing it. I see the neck and necklace, but I can't figure out the rest of it. It's still a pretty darn cool shot regardless of what the subject is.
I'm having trouble working out what it is... my best guess is something dangling down from the back of a woman's waist - something to grab? I'll be intrigued to find out what it is afterwards.
Anyway, it's an interesting abstract image! However it looks like you've done a little too much adjustment of the levels or curves, because I can see obvious colour banding in several parts, particular the light pinkish patch in the bottom-centre of the frame (that I interpreted as a woman's inside thigh).
I'm sorry, but I don't see how you could think this would be a succesful picture. It is not clear what you are photographing, what it is you want to show and how this relates to the challenge. I'm not even talking about the technical aspects of this shot (out of focus, blurry and muted colors), as I assume this is what you were going for.
