Very nice textures and compostion, nicely executed idea to portray a not so visually interesting occupation. A little hot above the eyebrow.

Effective use of (I'm guessing) duotone. Innovatively composed. Well lit. Maybe a bit too sharp, though?

I really enjoy this image. Very well done. It doesn't tell me anything except maybe frustration over what you are doing. Which could be a number of things. The title really saves it to explain further.

Great! Really expresses the "feel" of the job. This is the image that meets the challenge best of all. The green tones are perfect too.

Such a nice emotion, I can see the concentration of the logic of programming, or something similar. Good capture of that trade!

Great emotive shot - I feel your frustration. Nice composition and I like the green tones too. I think the little bit of eyeball is what makes this for me. Back to bump you up to 8.

Don't care for the green, but as someone who has spent hours and hours trying to write code, I know the feeling. Good job capturing the dedication and frustration.
