Image is low contrast, and the sky is completely gray. (as in unnaturally gray)

I love the color combo, curious if it's natural. The framing really lets this image down, but the colors are awesome.

Over processed, the cross hatched feeling of the background really kills the image for me. Wonderful moment though, really nice.

Jeez, what a great great great spot. The shot is good, but not up to Free Study standards, as the foreground is out of focus, and the shot seems noisy and artifacted. Go do this again, it's a simply fantastic shot and idea.

Great idea, neat light paimting, but your model is blurry. Shame really.

LOL, the fact that I'm recognizing you already is scary.

I actually find this much more appealing that your entry... I can see a much more banana like splotch here.

Not a bad start!

I like where you've gone with this, and I think you've done a nice job with the overall strangeness of everything here.

I think the photo could have benefitted from a few small tweaks, try playing around with these tools:

Image > Adjust > Shadows Highlights

Filters > Sharpen > Smart Sharpen (and Unsharp Mask)

Image > Adjust > color balance
