Yeah you've seen clowns and I've seen naked men.. what's the point? The point is you haven't seen this set-up. Oh yeah, and for the record I HATE CLOWNS.. : )

looks like you need some white balance adjustments because I can see some cyan in the whites of the image. Great composition and use of foreground and background though.
The picture is different -- but the sentiment has been done many times (clowns being a nightmare -- see the nightmare challenge) Luckily I'm not voting on the title! (I just thought I'd let you know, in case some people are voting you down, that might be why...)
I'm so glad I don't have a phobia of clowns. This guy looks pretty harmless. Great focus and I love the colors. It is so bright and cheerful. He looks like he wants a hug. :)
I really like how you've set the subject so far left and all of the others in the background are just perfect DOF to give us the idea, yet still highlight the one subject. (not voting)
Sharp and bright colors, and nice work on the DOF.
I hope this brings you a ribbon or at least places you in the top 10.
Now, I'm going to sleep and will have clown nightmares just like I did in my childhood - thanks. :-)
