love the way it looks like he's nearly embracing that 'flower' and hanging on the other one with his hind legs .. the dark blue colouring in the background is very dramatic and interesting .. especially combined with the blue of his body and the yellow/green of the plants .. great contrasts ..
also the bug and the plant he's on form a very pleasing design in the frame . :)xx

man .. you nailed the moody/atmospheric ..
brilliant shot .. excellent process .. beautiful use of overlay .. subtle and fitting ..
ps .. hot model .. !!..:)

minute later .. just read the other comments .. i couldnt see the hat .. still can hardly see it .. and i thought i'd calibrated my monitor just right .. tipped the top of the monitor forward and now i can see the hat ...

both versions are brilliant .. the very dark with no hat .. and the lighter version with the hat .. :)

brilliant shot ... wot i really like is that they seem really into wot they're doing and not posing for the guy with the camera and the tripod !!..
excellent in b&w .. love the scene .. slight vignette works ... it sort'v encloses the group/scene .. like a light on them .. love the guy second from the left with the hat .. he looks like he'd fall over if he stood up .. :)

so you're only planning to post two more photographs .. LOL ..
i'm loving the drama in this image .. both from the colours and your perspective .. very intense .. :)
these side challenges can be addictive .. check out how many i've been in !!!
but if you're anything like me and heaps of other ppl in dpc, then the inspiration and motivation we get from each other .. the wonderful comments .. the fact that we're taking so many photographs .. you just cant help but grow in your photography and develop your own individual style ..
and be in here a lot longer than wednesday !!!!!!!!!
