Nice title and composing. I might have removed the nose hairs, as they are distracting, lol :)

IMO this is one of the best of its kind. The title ties it together so well.

This is one of the very few images that doesn't rely on the title to portray the challenge topic.

Well done, Mark.

Love it. Simple and complex at the same time. Can convey several meanings so a great photo to contemplate. Perhaps removing the white spots on the eyeglasses and the hat brim would remove a minor distraction.

Really catches the eye. Like the blue toning. The dog's head is very realistic with proportions and lighting. Bonus points for the paws. The fairly tale connection or mood could have been a bit stronger as this is really a modern scene.

WoW!

Looks like Mark Wiley. I recognise the tones. If it's not, count it as a compliment.

This is an amazing edit, I can't fault it,(well maybe the blown out highlights to the left) -but that's minor not even sure how to accomplish this, never tried, so kudos to you.

Will get the blue for sure.

BTW how did you sneak this shot into a church?? Was it a funeral? Service? Would love to know.

This looks like a book cover. You should write the story.
