Oh don't worry about them turdy self-righteous folk. You got a buncha high scores in there. I *love* this composition and the stark contrast. So cool that you got him in perfect profile, knapsack and all. I ilke your frame too. If I'd have finished voting, it would have been at least an 8 from me.

thanks for the comments, all.
i do find it strange that so many people think alternative medicine has a single definition!
i could bang a hammer on my skull, but if it treats my headache...alternative medicine! and, people, there IS such a thing as:
ART THERAPY
mmmhmmm.
blargh.
that includes music therapy, writing therapy, photo therapy, mmhmmm. and more, too.
whatev, i didn't even try to take a photo for this challenge.
this one was taken at coney island, from the boardwalk, zoomed hella far at some dude on the shore. i felt it fit the challenge ok enough to enter it. but i didn't really care.
cheers to that,
katy

I think that the photo as a whole seems a little washed out, but the figure of the photographer against that color blue is really nice and melodic!

Sorry photography doesn't count as alternative medicine in my book. Interesting image overall though.

Photo therapy is a bit of a stretch, and for that subject, the photographer is not a big enough part of the composition.

Love the positive and negative space here but I think this could definately be alot darker. The water is really blown out.

I think this is kind of a stretch for the challenge but the photo is nice. I like the soft blue color.

Nice composition but pushing the challenge a little as an alternative medicine?

Too much dead space, try a lower angle and get closer too your subject.

I like the idea, but it took me a minute to find the photographer. I wonder what it would look like cropped a little bit.

Hey, after the voting......I often need "alternative medicine" to get OVER photo therapy!!! *grin* The shot has an odd look to it...kind of grainy and the background is quite washed out. Was this taken from a great distance and cropped or was it really zoomed in on?????

This one really caught my eye. I like the framing here and the location you chose for the photographer to be in the image. Nice job!

If you saw this pic in a postcard stand in the street would you even think about Alternative Medicine?
Still a very nice pic
