I'm not sure I see a hidden face of something that's not supposed to have a face. When you read the rules you will not that people were NOT to be used. If there's a hidden face there (besides the human) - I'm sorry for not "getting" it.

A bit abstract but effective. If this is moving water you need to pump up the shutter sppeed a bit to lesson the movement. Nice colors and perfectly exposed.

The face you submit may not be something that is intended to be a face (that is, not a person, animal, insect, toy or anything else that has a "face"). Please read the challenge rules. In another challenge you have a true winner here. An elegant portrait of a beautiful model. I could see this as a ribbon winner if it complied with the instructions. Mysterious, beautifully composed and exposed.

Nice setup (if it is) - or if not, good seeing! Exposure is perfect as is your choice of the dark background.

Good seeing and very nice lighting. The only thing that seems out of place to me is the purple-stringed object behind the top. This should be up near the top!

Wonderful! The aged look of the wood and peeling paint gives this a great feel. Textures, colors, and lines are perfect. Exposure is right dead on. I wish those (plastic looking) eyes were not there, but you have to take hat you get. The blue-white spots near the top of the left side are a bit bothersome.

Wonderful colors and a good find. The face is a bit obscure but that just adds a bit of mystery. This should fininh well towards the top.

Ah - the 'ole optical illusion from a class I had way back when. Exceptionally well executed. I hope people look at it long enough to see the hidden faces! Top ten!

This is truly awesome and my favorite of the bunch. I have a nagging feeling it may be a bit outside the editing rules but did not request a DQ. I hope it stays in! Good seeing, perfect exposure and presentation.

Your placement is perfect as is the rim lighting. Truly a piece of art. The white border holds it together very well. It has a lot of negative space - not really sure if that helps it or not. It SHOUTS broken extremely well.
