Your image seems a tad shy of one important element of this challenge, that being "Bokeh". A larger size image would also have played in your favour.

No offence, but the post processing makes this image look weird. The bark on the tree looks like the same time of velvety substance one sees on elk when they grow new horns..

I rather nice image, but the bokeh could have been enhanced a bit.

Good luck to you in the challenge.

I do hope you will take these comments as constructive criticism:

. The sky in the background is totally blown out,
. The image looks like it was taken at high noon,
. The shadows cast by the head covering make the poor man look like he is suffering from some horrible rash,
. The colour of the left shoulder of the man's jacket is very harsh, and lastly,
. The image is totally devoid of Bokeh.

Keep shooting.

Nothing makes my day like humour, and this certainly is fits the bill.

This image does indeed in my opinion meet the challenge criteria, but the white balance seems a bit off. I could be that you had the wrong settings set on your camera.

This is what you got to do !

Great message.... but if the total duration is 30 seconds, I fear you will have a totally disatisfied partner :O). Nice image.

I am rather intrigued how this fits into the challenge description. The image is certainly an eye opener, albeit rather gruesome by some standards. Some may argue it does not meet the challenge criteria and your score could suffer for it.

Creatively "capture" a shadow.......

Comment:
This is by far the most innovative interpretation of the challenge I have seen thus far. You truly have captured the shadow, and have also managed to convey a message that women are often captives of their environment.

Very well done.

I absolutely love this image and can hardly wait to find out how you managed this shot, as I am certain are countless others. A great photo which meets a the prescribed criteria, and executed to perfection.

Truly amazing how you managed to take a few simple, readily available items and combine them to make a striking image.

I commend you on your resourcefulness, ingenuity and photographic savoir faire. Very well done indeed.

...and the framing is where??? This is a very good image, but I fear it is not in keeping with the challenge criteria.
