Control - Today's Matrixby
ScottKComment: I agree with hawkida in that the bulk of the photo is the back of a head, which isnt all that interesting. Also already noted, is the fact that you can easily assume this is a computer monitor (I did)instead of of a television.
If television what what you wanted to represent the matrix, THAT should have been more the focus. Instead of shooting behind the head, how about from the side, and you could see some couch potato slumped permanently into a chair, hand fixed to a remote, eyes bloodshot from the glare of the tube. You could go even further, and with some imagination, find a way to put the television on top of a guy's shoulders, implying his head is a TV, thus he is the TV, today's matrix.
I was going to work some verion of this for the Home Sweet Home challenge, implying that TV has become the home. I knew it'd take more work than I had time for.
In short, the concept was not necessarily poor, just the execution. Staring at the back of a head is generally boring. ;)
