This one should have wound up in the winners circle. It's powerful and gritty and frankly I don't understand why so many of those making comments didn't get it. Keep up the great work!
It is a shame that the top of the fingers has been cropped off. The noise through the background unfortuntely annoys me here as well. I like the idea both with the shot and the post processing though...
I'm a little put off by the shiny oil or whatever it was you coated the hands and arms with. Combined with the shadow, it almost looks like there is a chunk out of the right hand thumb. Otherwise very nice entry.
Although this is a nice photo I'm not sure where the immovable object is or how a prayer fits the subject matter. background has a lot of noise as well.
I'm not sure I fully understand this shot. Is it two hands trying to touch through the immovable barrier?
The little things that bother me in the pic is the desaturation - it doesn't seem consistent - there are little patches of colour on the arm that don't match. And I don't really like the way the fingertips have been cropped off, it loses the shape of the praying hands.
I think with a little more work it could be a powerful image though.
"Take a photo of someone trying to move an immovable object." Looked at this image a few times before voting. Don't see how it meets challenge or what your thoughts could have been regarding the object.
The treatment is interesting. Not a fan of the resulting noise from the oversharpening.
This is a great image but I cannot tell that there is anything immovable. That really dark spot on the right hand is driving me crazy. It looks like the man has a hole in his hand.
I like the original concept and the composition with the two hands. Unfortunately there is for me a number of technical issues: the shot is very noisy and the right hand is cut at the top. So i gives me the feeling of a good idea but a disappointing execution.
I like this 2 to me it telling me that When u put your hands together and pray for god that its immovable to move unless gods says so ! Like noone can come between u and god! ITS IMMOVAbLE!
This image can be read in so many ways: I'm seeing a black/ white racial divide with the ugliness reinforced with the harsh lighting. Maybe the thin prayer is a comment on the lack of understanding between the two?
