Lighting info: Lit with two speedlights. One camera left, reflective umbrella box, as high as my stand can go, pointing down at an angle. The second, behind and to the right of the subject, shot bare, gelled orange. This lit the rim of her hat, as well as the left wall.

This happened to me a couple of months ago. It hurts. I picked up your ribbon for which I am grateful, but it's not the way I like to win. So sorry. Apparently, I did the same thing as you when I was dqued.
I"m totally bummed this was disqualified. I emailed them for clarification as to what I did wrong.. and am hoping to hear back. I checked and double-checked the editing guidelines, to make sure I was adhering to the rules, before entering it into the contest. I thought for sure I'd followed all the rules. Thank you anyways for all your nice comments. Darn :|
Here's the story behind the image: I've been working on a new series I call the 'Villain' series. I'll be taking the classic male horror movie villains, and depicting them in their natural environments, but put a pinup spin on their costumes. The pretty ladies are always the first to go in horror movies.. this time they're the villains! I just so happened to be working on my second villain, Freddy, the week of this challenge. Perfect timing :)
And for those who say the look is not Freddy.. in my opinion, he is the only horror movie villain who could ever get away with an evil smirk like this. All the other villains have to be so serious ;)
im not sure it works the eye makeup doesn't mesh i know its your interpretation and it's well executed very well lit but it kinda doesnt work for me sorry 6
