I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: Great coloration, just the right amount of blur. Lots of mystery too, the physical context is unclear - I like that. It has a slight claustrophobic feel about it - again, very effective.
Critical stuff: I'm not so keen on the background clutter.
Overall: An interesting take on a fairly engaging scene.
I can imagine the roly poly figure with the hat on top in a cirque de soleil presentation of Stravinsky's Petrushka. I'm enjoying the lines up and down and around and the light peeking through.
I see a hat and now the rest! On coming back to the picture I had a long hard look at the THUMBNAIL and saw it for what it was meant. Great great shot.
