 Hmmm, straight forward shot... nothing too deep here, I was focusing on the lighting and the contrast more than anything else.

Hmm i like this alot! the lighting is awsome, and the fact that you can only see a bit of your arms adds a little something to this. 8

Great lighting, very Shakespearian! I like the arms coming out of darkness and clenching the skull. I think this represents the challenge well and you've captured it well.

beautiful lighting and colortones here, love the mystery of looking at only the hands and the skull.

I like this. The arms disappearing into the black void really help highlight the message. 7

Interesting, somehow both life and death, interested in knowing how to keep light with dark background.

Great lighting, and subject. I love how the hands come out of nothingness. Excellent job.

Great image. Certainly denotes death. I'm wondering though if perhaps, cropping the space above the head and a bit on either side might have pulled a bit more drama and focus to the main image area???
