Noctilux? Looks like it might be. I love this effect in portraits.

Comment by MadMan2k:
There is some motion blur or just lack of sharpness on this one, but it's well composed and there are some red things so it meets the challenge.

Nice shot but it's not really red it it's kind of pink.

It was 7 from me and no time to bump or comment on time. I loved the ambiguity of the picture, title and all.

Comment by Paul:
This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)

Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.

This is one of my 10s - I like it very much. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. The whole quirkiness of the portrait.
2. The unblock blacks.
3. The centred composition.
4. The intensity of gaze.

Very well made.
