Thanks for the comments - the model was actually my 15 year old son, who also was a good enough sport to walk around the town with make-up on before the shoot

You know if you cross your eyes like that, they'll stay that way... Novel take on the challenge! A little less nostril would be better.

I'm embarassed to admit that I don't get it. Great image but the title doesn't make sense to me. Struggling. My image, entered in this Challenge asks the viewer to connect a dot or two which isn't happening for me and I assume you're having the exact problem??? Good luck just the same...it's a very cool shot.

Nicely done - especially your framing. I get a sense of dissociation between the figure and the background that is a little unsettling - it's simply the depth of field, of course, but it has the effect of making her surroundings feel simply like a backdrop perhaps, rather than a world she is involved in; her berlin 1930's make-up set aginst the nicely ordered georgian architecture perhaps adds to that feeling too. A nice piece of work however, and that point is more interesting than troubling.

Interesting. Reminds me of Boy George mixed with "A Clockwork Orange".

Love the colors... the building and her shirt give me a good idea of where she is and why she's there...but the far off stare makes me wonder who she's looking at... it tells a story without giving anything away.
