I think you got some dnmc's for having a partial face? That's the only explanation I can think of for this not being over 6. Beautiful.

Good and interesting tonal shades to show this otherwise dark subject mater in strong midtones. Bump.

Very emotive. Maybe a black background would have really driven the message home. Great image though! 8o)

This must be a dancer. His body is so beautifully positioned. This is how perfect a studio shot must be to have any power. 10

this one elicits emotion, which is the purpose of photography (IMO). I would have preferred a more vague title, which lets each of us determine the emotion expressed in the photo. 7.
