What a unique approach to this theme. I really love the idea. The only thing that bothers me just a bit is the cleaner spot on his palm around the grain of rice. I still am giving this a 9 because I love the idea and the approach you took and the focus and colors are dead on.

nice shot, is the center of his hand brighter because of lighting?

That's a very strange image. Beautifully cropped, luscious tonalities, social commentary up the wazoo in a minimalist setting. Strong entry.

Hey Eva, I gave this an 8. It was definitely one of my favorites from the challenge. I like your treatment of the type, too, and good typography was rare in this challenge. (I like GulimChe as well--its unevenness is really appealing.) I actually don't see the texture of the stocking at all. I guess my monitor is darker than yours. But that does answer the question of how you got the great silhouette-like effect, which I thought was amazing. Very well done.

this bug is so cute!! I wish the eyes were a bit sharper, but the colors and DOF are really nice.
