I would have preferred this image with a different title. Why give away the strength of the image (red) in the title? I would have guessed a red(dish) color anyways... and then it would add to the mystery element.
Description of challenge: "The final photo MUST be in black and white (and the grays in between)."
I've gotta vote you lower because of the sepia color. Bummer... I'm sorry. :(
