I'm giving a 7 and what I hope will be a lesson - upside down usually doesn't work. This confuses my head for no purpose. If I look too long it will be a 4.
This made me stop and think for a minute how exactly it was taken which is nice in a pov challenge. Also the subjects smile instantly makes me feel cheerier, so that's always a good thing too =).
Hehe, this is cool. Fits the challenge perfectly.
I like how you have rotated the image. I think it is somehow missing a bit of pop though. Is this using the on camera flash? the lighting looks a bit flat. Using a reflector or off camera flash might have fixed this.
