Well, I gave this a 6 for creativity alone! :) Might have known it was yours, Paul. I do admire you for shooting what you want and DPC trends be damned!

Lol... The lighting seems a little flat and dull. The ribbon/rope thing doesn't seem to do anything for the image yet it is the first thing I saw.

Another one of those out of the box type of shots. I like it.

Hmmm...well, here's my two cents! :)
This would be a lot better shot maybe if the background and the surroundings of the person weren't so cluttered. the first thing you'd want to get rid of is that rope hanging right in front of the main subject. Also having the person wear a simple shirt without anything on it might be good - less distracting. The background should probably be perfectly clear, with nothing observable in it. But good try though! :) Interesting idea.

pretty cluttered shot - the T shirt is distracting as is the cord along the back wall.

The strings in front of the subject and on the wall behind is quite distracting for me. I like the idea though, very funny title!

The foreground of this image is a little distracting, it takes away from the main subject.
