ants on a mission

I saw ant hills up at the park and thought about doing those. I think this just didn't say "hole" to people. Perhaps if you had lightened the shadows a bit to see the ants that were entering the hole, it might have helped?
I forgot to vote on this. :(

I probably would have given it a 6, since it did seem to be more about the ants than the hole.

Interesting... I'm not quite understanding the focus in this. It seems like the oof right eye (his) is pretty much the same plane as the left that's in focus? Yet that's a little soft feeling at times? The hyper sharp hair is interesting. My first feeling was around a 6, because the of the right eye distractingly oof, the blown highlights on the face, etc. But it's rather mesmerizing. For some reason it's reminding me of one of Van Gogh's self portraits. -8- for making me think

Nicely done. I love the black and white in the background as well as the dog. The nose is a little blown, but not as big of a deal in b&w as it would be in color. I also wish it was a little down so there wasn't as much space underneath and that the tip of the ear wasn't cut off. But it's still a 7 from me for the feeling of it.

What a fun idea. I wish he was holding the cup higher, so that the bird and his face were closer to the same plane. 6 for the idea, and as is, but there's so much you could do with this.
