I like this idea, but not sure if it is just a wig on a pole and a real person. It is way too dark in the face, and people like to see at least a bit of the features.
Kinda spooky picture. Makes the viewer wonder, "What the heck?!?!" I'm not sure what your goal was here, but the face seems to be, well, FACELESS. Was that an accident or planned? Either way I like it's potential. NO SHIRT, NO SERVICE.... NO FACE, NO SOUND. Would have liked to see gray cloth on right turned to complete black. A little rim/bounce lighting on left side of head to help detail/outline of hair. Slight lighting/detail on face keeps it from going into total darkness, which is what I'd have liked. Now, if all of this is not what you intended, ignore everything I've just said! ;) Keept it up! :)
This here hmmmm. Im thinking that a little more like on the hair than in b&w. maybe a slight hint of a face, not really features. but an edge so you know its there.
This reminds me a little bit more of "mystery" than "silence". I like the lighting of the hair, though... how it catches the far side of the head just slightly.
