What a beautiful photo. I really like how you were able to get the HDR, but still look real. Nice job.

Wow, this shot is awesome. Both the setup with the lensbaby and the processing of it. Nice work.

Very nice idea. A fill flash for the hand would have been nice to see used in this photo. As for the complexities of exposure on this type of shot, you did really well.

There are way too many hot spots in the photograph. The crop is exceptionally tight. Excluding the challenges presented by shooting a moving/live subject, this photo should be much sharper than it is. Including more of the reflection in the foreground would have helped. And if the background had the "someone" in it, outside the DOF, this shot would have been improved.

Oh, I love the Far Side comic strips, and this is one that I have always remembered. Great idea. The entire photo is a bit muddy and underexposed, lacking in contrast and punchy colors. The crop is way too tight, and the model appears to be resting against the door, and not trying to open it.

Put a shoulder in to it! Where is the sweat and strain on the model's face from trying to move something immovable? The editing on everything except the model's face looks really good. The face looks pale and blotchy in comparison to the rest of the photo.

Nice shot. I had to laugh upon first viewing this photo. The idea is great. It would be nice to have included more of the surrounding area, and not have the boat in the center of the composition.

There seem to be a lot of simple shots identical to this one. I am happy to see the model's face in this shot, looking like he is straining to move the train. This challenge would have been much cooler in the advanced editing, or the expert editing even. Then you could have really made this stand out, using some high contrast, grunge editing, and even made the foot appear to be sinking in the ground. Oh well. Still a decent shot.
