I really wish this was in color. I love the idea and the angle, but it loses something in b&w translation. :)

Absolutely adore the bend in the trees. What a great look and spectacular idea! The grave stones amongst the trees were a great touch!

The Mind Macabre

Wasn't sure I liked the editing on the person. The forehead seems to take over the shot. And the sharpness of the mind vs the soft grittiness of the face seems to interrupt the flow and bring the focus more to the face than the mind. (also, the hands in the background are really dark. I've looked through this challenge about 5 times before voting and never noticed the hands.) I wish the darks either weren't as dark, or the hightlights were taken down a bit so that it flowed together a little more.

However, that all being said, I like the idea, I like the crop on the face with just the eyes at the bottom, and I like that there's a lot to explore. :) -7-
