Love that you got a 4.25 and not a 2.25. You must have been shocked. BTW, how is this NOT a self-portrait? In fact, give me a ring the next time you go to the moon to shoot yourself back on Earth, I'd love to join you!
I had been thinking of making a few straight lines on a black background and entering, I wish I had been as brave as you and actually done it now. I love this image, so full of mystery and intrigue :)
Oh my god, I'm giving this a seven event though the rule-hounds are going to be all over it. If you had only taken some image, and burned every pixel out except for that one in the center. I have a feeling the "at least 160 pixels, and no more than 800 pixels on each side" rule is going to hurt here.
Too close to the all-black and all-brown square from a couple of years ago. However, your pixel does look to be crisply in focus, with nice contrast. A bit too centered of composition for my taste, however... ;-p
