I'm going to have to agree with xion - picture's great, but the text needs work! Text is just as much a graphic element as the photograph itself... a more subdued font (e.g., narrower characters, lower height for the letters with long stems like 'd' and 'h') with more tracking and more space to breathe would, I think, communicate more elegantly.

great simulation of the magic of King Midas. the swirl of smoke is a very nice touch. perhaps a bit more space on the bottom than necessary?

while i do always celebrate the unshrouded human body, i don't see how the nudity supports the concept.

I like the idea. You have some serious JPEG compression artifacts that make it hard to appreciate the image.
