I'm really surprised this didn't do better. |

I thought this was one of the best shots in the challenge: the dirty, weathered hand is sharp, and although blurred the camo clothing, long hair and red face point to a life on the street. You managed to get a blue sky, too.
The homeless as subject for photography is such a cliché that even saying it's cliché is cliché. Here his anonymity is respected. His angry gesture is the perfect response to someone pointing a camera at him, but softened by the smile, which makes this picture kind of a joy. |

Probably got hurt because of the gesture, but that is also the appeal of this shot. It's in your face and unapologetic real life. One of my 10's. |

Too funny! Guess he didn't want his picture taken, but ended up being a great shot anyway |

His finger is kind of bent to the left... |
