Bondage? Sorry, does not say freedom to me.

This is frightening. The little bit of grain on the image almost seems to me to be lack of resolution and not a photographic technique, but otherwise a very intriguing challenge entry.

Not sure if this is photojournalistic shot (for real) or not, but in any case, this is a very well done & emotional image. Great choice for B & W.
One of my favorites in this challenge ((8))

The image itself talks of oppression not of freedom from it. Nicely done but a little dark overall.

A very sad image. This looks more like the opposite of freedom but it gets the point across.

Great shot - perfect timing, and it really gets the message across. Pictures like this don't always come without a cost either.

Nice photojournalistic style, but this photo, to me, represents exactly the opposite of what the challenge called for - "a photograph representing freedom". This photo does not "represent" freedom, but a lack thereof.

The photo in itself doesn't say freedom to me. The way he's holding those ropes doesn't scream involuntary either.

Wow, what a dramatic image. I'm really curious to find out what was going on here.
