This was taken from a CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) training at my local fire dept. The skylight from above provided for the dramatic lighting. B&W conversion, levels, curves and sharpening done to finish.

Nice idea well executed. The lighting makes it look a bit like a studio shot. I love the man in the door expression. It adds more "real" feeling. I really like the idea. 8
excellent idea for the challenge. i was actually surprised that we didn't see more photos of aid workers, cops, etc. i'm assuming this a candid and not a studio setup, so well shot with good interaction between all the people in the frame. the exact nature of the aid isn't necessarily clear, but the woman's distress and the man's comfort to her is. kudos - 8.
