I have never created anything like this, it probably would not be considered "Fine Art", and it will probably go down in flames but, what the hey! :-)

*sigh* It's only Monday but I was too correct about this shot - why did I ever think I could ever create anything even remotely close to a fine art image? I see the Brown by the end of this. ;-)

2 - Not doing much for me with this straight up, cliche subject and composition, the title needs refinement too.

I suppose this could be Fine Art and you may have gotten comments from voters loving it. Of course our opinions on art are so vast I will be interested to see how this entire challenge finishes up. But for me on this shot I just don't really care for it and I don't see the Fine Art in it, of course that may just be me, who knows. But good luck to you and also did you mean to leave that section of the border above the rabitt different?

Coming off to me as a bit flat and overprocessed. I do see the effort to do something a bit different with this, it's just not grabbing me at all, I'm afraid.

Aggressively processed, and thus not appealing for me. Does not work as fine art, in my view (that is, odd or abstracted or blatantly metaphoric does not necessarily mean "fine art").

In general I like a grainy photograph - within limits.

for me the composition of this is to square/balanced

Good idea, but I'd back-off on the grain. Quite a bit of haloing around the rose and the heart.

Would I hang this on my wall. Probably not, but still a nice picture, For your courage I give you a good 6.

typo on your title, "life and death" (if you can change it)
