TOOOOOOOO FUNNY! Great idea and the surprised eyes really make the shot. Well done, and nice to see some humor.

Interesting concept, but it seems a little heavy-handed. I don't like the use of National Geographic magazine as the foil because it seems a shade too much like you are using it as a parallel, and I happen to love National Geographic. To me it seems out of synch with the times because we are moving toward era of censorship and away from any type of freedom of expression.
Great expression on your subject's face and nice composition.

Meets the challenge in a delightfully creative way, with excellent lighting and composition. The model's face adds just the right spark of interest and humor. Well done comment on time and change. Also - perfect DOF.

this has to be my favorite, because it is so funny (and so true!) ... the expression in the girls eyes is priceless

Cool idea. Not sure why the reader's eyes are looking shocked though and you could've roughed up the porno mag just a little on the edges.

lol, very cool idea! I would suggest putting another magazine inside the Porno one, cuz it looks page-less here. Good luck...

This image is on the money with great expression and the changes in time where such a publication reduces itself to catch the beat that need not be really addressed. more of a playboy topic. great message. You have my 9
