Wonderful stuff. So much to see and imagine when an image isn't confined by reality.

Commenter average of 8.6 with that many commenters during the challenge is pretty darn impressive! This one is a keeper.

Wow I really thought this should have received a higher score. I gave you an 8. I thought it was very artsy. Nicely done.

Very engaging image. Plus, I think there should be some kind of award for getting a histogram with three distinct peaks -- at 1, 4 and 8. Well done.

Ephemera incarnate.

This was never going to be in the ribbons but nonetheless 315/322 is lunacy.

A 9 from me.

Image 319 out of 321 to vote on, and well worth the wait.

the background has a lot going on, and I think I can spot a young man picture in there. the question if this is Dorian's own picture should remain a mystery I should think.

As for scoring goes... This will probably bomb. I love it though. It made me stop and think. Something that a lot of these photos have yet to do. Well done. Good usage of grain. Will be back to vote later. :)

Came back to favorite. Well done. This is my favorite of the challenge. :)

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: Wonderfully mystery with this portrait. Enough form for the brain to make sense of it without giving us a hint of distracting detail. I think the window for that feat is quite narrow and you have hit it perfectly. The simultaneous softness and starkness is quite magical.

Critical stuff: Perhaps, the top could be trimmed just a tad...?

Overall: Wonderful stuff.

I'm usually not a fan of out of focus photography, but this one has such a beautiful texture, composition, and strange emotion that I had to give it a high score.

There is something very sculptural about this
