I was one of your 8s. Beautiful shot. Looks like a brush and ink print.

I don't normally like "special effects" shots, but this one shows great artistry. I think it's my favorite photo of the challenge.

I love this shot. It reminds me of a Diane Arbus portrait. Not the subjects! But the semi-posedness of it, the pose that is awkward yet inevitable. The complete calm of his expression opposed to the jittery excitement of hers. The way he is so completely clothed where she seems exposed (even her teeth). And what do people keep saying around here? I know! Tones! You got great tones!
