Wow, cool shot. I'm surprised this didn't score higher.

I like the choice to flatten the tones. It helps to merge the human element and the water as one. Overall, a very captivating image and as a result, the YankO Red.

This is my favorite of the 'person in water' shots. I like the way the DOF blurs out her body to contrast the dark water. It almost makes her head look disembodied, which creeps my wife out but I like it.

8 - Nice eye contact/capture - sets this apart from the other similar styles in this Challenge - gives the image a 'pure' feel, without invoking 'negative' thoughts.

Almost a creepy feel to this... I'm imagining that it will be interpreted in many different ways. The eyes are fantastic!
