POST: Thanks for the comments. This was a candid shot of my son and the bubble wrap was completely experimental, so I wasn't expecting much. I did think it produced an interesting softness, less subtle in the outtake:

Wow - I gave this one my highest vote for the challenge. Rather disappointing to see it end so low!
I really liked the symbolism of the blurry distorted shot to highlight the dream like state a good book can take us too. Well done, and thanks for sharing. Far more interesting shot than another sharply focused picture of water....
On the negative side, a little more thought to the models pose, and perhaps the half picture sticking out of his head is a little distracting.
This really conveys how I feel when I read a book - the world becomes a whole lot less real. My only nit would be it's hard to tell he's reading a book without the title, but this is still one of my favorites in the challenge.
