I think this image is one that demands attention, whether voters like it or not you have to stop and look. I personally liked the image because it really grabbed my attention and it was differnt. Also after reading your comments I can't believe he is so tall!
This was an awesome idea and you did a wonderful job of capturing it. I think your depth of field was just right for me because if the image was to sharp I think it would have distracted from the lines that were created. Your lighting and color both look great. I also like the composition, if this were any other shot I probably like to have seen the top of his head but the cropping really works well here.
Overall this is an excellent piece, I am surprised it didn't score higher because you know as everyone was flipping through and voting this one had to grab their attention. Keep up the great work I look forward to your future entries!

I really like this photo. The colour on black background really helps to highlight this model's body and I like how the shadows have cast yet it is still perfect enough to highlight things like his ear-rings, veins, and expression. I'm 75% through voting in this challenge and this is the first 10 I have awarded. EXCELLENT WORK!
In fact, the only 10 that I awarded now that I have finished voting! |

I like the pose and the intense expression. And the lighting is very appropriate, adds to the intensity. Would have been even better if DOF were deep enough for whole body to be sharp. |

The shallow dof doesn't work here for me. If the legs had been in focus too I think you would have had a very sculptural effect. |

the sharpness looks a bit weird here, I don't think you could do this with a normal DoF (but I could be wrong ofcourse ;))
the crop is a bit too tight for me at the top. I keep looking at the eyes! |

strange pose, but matchingexpression. DOF is somewhere in between, were gone for whole body in focus or just the face. crop at top is too tight. |

Unusual position here and it looks a little uncomfortable... |

Very creative, and an interesting study of human form. Although it looks uncomfortable :-) I really like the shapes you've achieved here. Nice lighting too. I am thinking though, that maybe going for deeper dof might tie it all together stronger in this case. |

I find it a little dark, but I think it works. Very piercing, it's like he's looking right at you. I love it. |

Lighting is beautiful, I like the idea. As a figure study, it's fabulous. I might have increased the depth of field slightly to allow a bit more detail in the leg hair, but that's the only minor detail that I could think of. Good Luck |

I search the triangle but I find not it (or I read to the title badly ) |

Interesting shot, nice perspective, excellent lighting. I would like to see a sharper focus on the eyes. |

An interesting image. The focus is on the eyes but in this case I think the tangled body is what is making the image so it should also be in focus. Perhaps a smaller aperture & more DOF would help a bit. Lighting is also a bit flat. A bit more contrast by using only one of the two side lights which seem to be exactly left & right or lowering one of them might help. |

Great title. I like how he fills most of the frame. Wonderful lighting.I wish all of him were in complete focus. I like the crop but I think for it to "match," I might've cropped more off of the bottom as well. |

you should have use less aperture for your shot... and use the light only on one side of your model in order to have some low key effet. Just my opinion.
The pose is great! |
