 Theatre shot...transformed to black and white. Added some contrast and decreased brightness to darken the background. This kind of physical theatre surely is a manifestation of 'letting go' physically. Looks like the soul is going out of the body !! A kind of ascension

My feeling is that you got in too close on this one. I would have liked to see all of him and possibly a bit of background.

Interesting shot. Nice choice of B&W and background. It would have been better to use a different color for the shorts, or have him completely nude, as the black shorts break the rythm created by the body.

Not really sure if this fits the challenge or maybe I just don't understand it.
