I like this.. has a kind of story behind it, maybe a little unsettling, or a lonely feeling. Lovely light.

Awesome lighting and color cast. Perfect for the image.
Maybe my monitor is too bright but I can clearly see your right elbow under the pillow and it's a tad distracting.
Great job, again.

Beautifully lit. The "night" lighting looks great with the toning. I like the pose and the catch lights are perfect. Nice job!

This is verrry different. Love the feel you've achieved with the colorization; dreamy, fearful, wonder all rolled together. Great imagination.

I was thinking more of Metalica when I saw the title (lyrics within "Sandman"). The tone of the image almost looks like night-scope vision.

Really has power, this does. The green/blue of the duotone really works with the "moonlight" color of night. It's almost as if a skylight is shining on your face. The hair over the face and the expression almost has a sadness about it. Makes me wonder WHAT you are looking at or thinking of. Super job.

Looks like moonlight through a window - great lighting and color. No teddy bear though, huh? ;-) Great job again, Jimmy!

Oh man I need a remote for my camera.... you look sooooo relaxed but at the same time, you look like you are pondering something... the colour really represents where you went with this photo and there are some killer catchlights in your eyes :)
