too crowded in your composition if you want to just make an opposition between pretty and ugly, stick to simple.l alll the plants, too many chairs, objects in the background, its all clumping your photo taking the viewer away from what you wish to depict, which in turn, makes this photo uninteresting.
5 for meeting the challenge.

Nicely done, I especially like the real versus picture subjects it gives the photo even more interest.

Not sure I'm getting the point here. Why the background print? Is the girl in the print pretty and the person (guy/girl?) at the table is ugly? Or, is it the hat/shirt combo you're refering to? Well, at least you're getting the viewers to stop and ponder it some. :D As for the image itself, I think a polarizer would have helped with the glare on the chair and table - overall the image feels slightly overexposed in the highlights.

Best of luck to you in the challenge.

This frighteningly reminds me of the subject in my shot for Motion Blur2.
Funny!

I expected this to do much better. It was one of my favourites.

Great combination of lines and shadows, ribbed woody, and blinds. I should have scored this higher, but I'm glad that it is still here to appreciate more.

I feel I've neglected your woody. I only gave it a 6 and didn't comment on it. This is an example of how spending more time with each picture would help me appreciate more. Nice use of chiaroscuro, which evokes the movie that is the source for your quote. I suppose I wanted you to recreate the whole scene...
