I like this very much, it has an apropriate ambiguity. The facial hair and the slightly wary look of the model makes me imagine this is the photographer's teenage son (and good sport), yet I suppose this could just as easily be someone who regularly goes by a woman's name. The colors of the dress, tree, and skin tones against the darker background are beautiful. Good depth of field.

What are you looking at?

My first time voting for a DPC challenge (thought I'd start with a challenge that had fewer entries) and I'm casting my first vote for you! I don't have a good sense yet of what the numbers mean, but this is perhaps my favorite in the challenge so I'll give it a high number.

I love the ambiguity in this photo. The guys are clearly masculine and their looks are fierce and natural. It feels unposed, though I assume they dressed for the photo and this is not their usual garb.

The skin tones look great against all the black, and there is a sepia-like quality that is not forced.

Enough blathering, I'd better learn to shorten my comments. Best of luck!
