Taken on Friday 13th, a creepy van with dozens of small handprints, a la Blair Witch Project. Crop, channel mixer to black and white, curves, resize, sharpen.

So creative! I wish I'd voted on this one so I could give it a nice high score. IMO your scores are low for something so out-of-the-box and well-rendered.
Like the high contrast and the "what the heck are all those handprints doing there" aspect. Makes me think it's a well loved, well used family car where family matters more than the overblown American tendency to worship their vehicles.
I really am diggin this shot! I didn't vote in the free study challenge this time, but I would have given this an 8. I like the black and white. I think it works perfectly for the creepy effect. I also really like the composition. One thing I think I would have liked better would be if the line of the doors was a little bit more to the right. Just a preference thing on my part. Otherwise, the placement of the handprints gives the feeing of someone trying to climb up the side of the car, but slipping downward in failure. I really like it. Nice work. :)
I loved this! I can't tell you how many times my kids have done this, along with the dog. I once had paw prints from the front of my hood, up the windshield, covering the roof and then off the back windshield for one last push before the dog jumped. I gave it a 7.
A commenter average of EXACTLY FIVE. Now that is creepy. Well, I realise that the number 5 isn't, strictly speaking, thought of as being a creepy number, but woah.
