I really like this shot...I find reflections interesting, as though we get some strange insight into the person. A personal favourite part is the tree, acting as a beard...he is clean shaven. I had a shot I knew would score higher than this, but am stuck submitting what I consider to be my favourite that month...my own test to see how my tastes co-ordinate with the world around me.
Curves, calculations, levels, curves, shadow/highlight, high pass, dodge and burn, cloned small bits, crop, neat image, added border, save for web.

You took a picture of snot on a window and got a 5.78. You really are good!
Sorry posthumous, I really like this shot...snot and all!! LOL. No really I do, I like the dreamy imaginitive quality of it, and the reflective memory inducing thing it has going on...maybe it's just me...
This is out of focus, and I can see reflections in the glass. Very distracting. Next time, take your model out from behind the glass and have him look directly into the camera. And where are the colors?
Wow, what a phenominal photo!!! I'm sure that you're getting some morons giving you critical comments on nit-picking technical aspects, but I can tell you that I really LOVE this refreshingly different and very "deep" shot! Unfortunately, it seems the "artsy" shots don't always do well in this site it seems. Nude models do well though! *grin, sigh* I really like this shot! Time to get away from flowers, babies and traditional style, technically "perfect" photography in here. 10 from me!
Such a beautifully captured moment. I love that you've allowed it to be imperfect, the dark space to the right, the soft focus, the grain - they are what make the photo work for me. Really cool.
Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning.
