The idea is someone trying to move his/her own reflection. There is a large building here in the neighborhood that is made from glass and I thought it would be nice to use that building for this purpose.
I am not making any expectation and just submit for the fun of it and this is the first time I submit for a DPC challenge.
Crop, added contrast and sharpen.

Have you explained that to the site council? Next time, I would make sure you explain that up front... though I would appeal the decision right now. You would think that council would know dates since this is an international site.
This totally sucks! My camera is set for Icelandic time zone and is taken in 8.sept. and that is written 08.09.08, in the USA zone that is written 09.08.08 and therefore is my image taken on 09. August according to them.
Great Idea. Would have preferred if the crop did not cut off the top of his head int eh reflection, and more room at his left foot as well. A square crop may have worked well here

Put a shoulder in to it! Where is the sweat and strain on the model's face from trying to move something immovable? The editing on everything except the model's face looks really good. The face looks pale and blotchy in comparison to the rest of the photo.
Nice processing and composistion. I like the reflection but a bit more of a strained look on his face would make it a little more convincing of the topic. 8 from me :)
I love this shot. My only wish for this photo, is that the skyline was oriented horizontal to the photograph. But that is a very small detail to make a great photo only slightly better
