This is just too good! I feel I'm looking at a lovely charcoal drawing that̢۪s been perfectly smudged.

Love the title too. Ties it in nicely to the challenge.

Although I prefer the skin tones in your entry I feel this is better composed with nice framing and the stare beyond the camera.

I had a queasiness feeling when I first saw the thumbnail as I friend of mine hung himself just before Christmas. For a second I thought not to open you image but I̢۪m so glad that I did. This is such a fantastic image that I can look beyond my own memories and appreciate what you have created. It helped to read some of the other comments to see different takes on the image.

What makes this image work for me is the tilt, grain, perspective, texture, the out of focus subject, the light from the door and the shadows. I̢۪m sure if I was to study this for longer other elements will present themselves to me such as the lines from the polished floor boards, the open hand and the hint of toes. Enough rambling, I just really like it and I̢۪m so glad that I decided to look.

Very nicely done. I tried something similar in the Six Word Memoirs challenge last year but you pulled this off much better.

I actually prefer the one you chose to exhibit. The apple shadow adds so much to the composition.

I gave this a 7 as I felt it was beautifully done. Glad to see you're true to yourself when entering challenges too.

Wow! Such a vibrant colour these leaves have that is nicely relieved by the green of the flower. Nicely composed.

I really like this shot. The colour has that 70̢۪s feel. For me this has a feel of a Henri Cartier-Bresson colour image.
