Maybe this idea derived from all the poorly lit family photos I see that bother me all the time. I don't know. This is my daughter ... This was very quick but i knew exactly what I wanted and this was pretty much it; lighting such that the normally important, essental elements are missing, and extraneous parts tell a different story.
It also represents a bit of spontenaety on my part and was fun to see how light drew this for me.

bizarre. My take...what a couple must imagine, as they contemplate adoption of an older child. They meet, and get to "know" the child, but more will certainly follow after the child's rebirth.
Speaking subjectively, I think you are right on target with what this challenge requested. Excellent and original. A bit spooky, too. This viewer asks: Is there a face?
Sufficiently weird to qualify as "fine art". Personally I don't connect, but I'm sure it will do well. On the technical side, I notice hot highlights in the hair, which isn't really a big deal. I enjoy the softness of the (faceless) model coupled with the coarse texture of the curtains.
Would I hang this on my wall. Probably not, but still an intersting picture. However I judge on what I would hang in my apartment. For your courage I give you a 6.
