Spent time the first morning of the portrait from behind challenge shooting and editing this image. Went to upload it to the challenge and then saw the description that the model needed to be clothed. Doh! So into this challenge it goes. And by the way - Aidan did have his pants on.

Great lighting and a technically sound photograph and I gave it an 8, but I can see why to some people the image might seem a bit controversial. Perhaps, the five 1's that you got was the result of that. Again, great lighting and processing.
This photo is uncomfortable for me. As art, the work (he) is of course beautiful. But, I am not be comfortable with a child being displayed quite like this.
