Over saturating the colours is really what has given this the edge here. I thought it was a great entry. Had I voted, I would have given it a 7. Cool lens flare on the upper left too!

Ok, I'm going to risk it and say I don't think this is really a woman... More like a bandit who accidentally fell over a Flamenco dancer's clothes rack :D

Great concept for the challenge, and a beautiful moment captured, but I think post processing is a little over done. I wonder if this would have worked better simply converted to sepia...?

This may have worked better if the flash wasn't so intrusive :)

I typically do like grain in monotoned images, but I'm not sure it's done you any favours here. I guess it may be because I'd prefer to see 'flesh' as smooth and as something that would be wonderful to touch, but the overall feeling I get here is gritty and hard. I see you've softened the highlights somewhat (diffused glow?) and that does help to a certain degree. Also. I think your subject's pose and title match perfectly and do well to aid the viewer in believing the message you're conveying. Well done, if this is an sp, I think you are very brave. Cheers, Rina.

The landscape feels a little over-processed, but overall, this is way cool. 9.
