Okay, I'm going to hold out and see if we don't get a couple of disqualifications. If not, then I guess I'll need a list... ;-) Very nice setup, Alex, and excellent processing.

Great concept, but I have a couple of problems with it. I don't like how the shadows are going in two different directions. The guy in the photo looks overprocessed.

The most striking thing here is the colours and the post processing. doesn't seem particularly natural, but it is effective. the kind of halo thing around his head is a little strange, and his clothing is at odds with the environment - a little too Gap, and possibly a bit too air brushed / neat imaged.
the location is startingly captured; i love the grass dotted with daisies, the tree is very nice and provides a great focal point, and the composition overall is spiffing. the sky, albeit dynamic, seems a bit pink and fluffy, thereby reducing the ominous potential a tad...
a strange but appealing image.
My First Weighted Scoring System ™; composition + technical 2.5/3, challenge 1/1, post processing results 1.5/2, ooooh factor 3/3, originality 1/1 = 9
