A total step out of my comfort zone, but I'm very pleased with the result.

Expected critiques:
- out of focus
- lighting
- choice of sepia

Regarding focus, I went for a more soft-focus feel as my hairy arms were quite distracting!

Anyway, I'm happy with this. Was SHOCKED to see a 6.2 on the first day of voting. It's been going downhill steadily ever since, and spent most of the week at 5.9, but I'm really hoping I can work my way back up to 6 and stay there.

Regardless, this is a new PB for me!

I'm really glad this did so well. I gave it 8 and thought it should have broken 6.
Nice!

Thanks for the kind words, Mark! Was hoping for a 6+, but think I didn't help myself with the soft-focus though. Consider it a lesson learned!

My highest vote. I thought the idea was brilliant. I'm very surprised this did not nail a 6+.
