Good post-processing on the reflection works really well. It took me a while to see it. Initially I was going to tank this shot as I felt it was there purely for shock value following on from the controversy over the shot in the pencil challenge.. but this works works well on its own merits. Hope it does well. Going for a 9 here (was going to be a 6 originally, that will teach me to look harder at shots in future!)

As much as your shots generally tend to bomb, you really have a distinctive style all of your very own!

Comepletely shoe-horned into the challenge. Theres no denying it isnt a nice shot, its great, but I really feel the title was used to force this shot in.

Great capture. almost looks like it is in the wild due to no signs of captivity in the shot.. nice one.

I'm sorry I am not making the connection with the challenge.. by all means its a lovely photo, but probably works better for you due to the personal connection it has..

well, this certainly stands out in the thumbnails - up close it doesnt have the impact intended. not a bad idea, executed well.. maybe a tad too much vignetting added in. but overall solid.

Shoe-horned. really nice photo though, but if it wasnt for the title it would not meet the challenge at all, even less than it does now. This would of been better in a freestudy where I would of scored it a 7 or 8, here it scrapes a 5.
