Comment by HRoxas:
Great idea, execution is good and photo is excellent. The extended arm is blurry but I can figure out it's giving the finger. Great artsy shot. 9

I like the apparent mutilation and the fgeneral set-up, but could have done without the glasses and the transition in colour

Comment by Kylie:
Very unique take and must not have been easy! I think, for me, the hand reaching out being a total blur hurts it, and not sure if I would prefer the two-tone high-key if I could see it presented in other ways also. But your vision of what you wanted is the deciding factor, regardless.

Comment by photom:
Artistic and original. The left hand needs to be a bit sharper and/or a different color to be effective. The way it is - it really blends into the background so that the finger looks disconnected. High key effect is great for this.

The paper covering the mouth has no reason to run off the page. No need for
nude model to make the point. Too much blur.

Masterful. This is the kind of image that inspires me to spend $25 and become a member, just so I can give this a 10. The message being put forth here is so clear, that it had to be painfully difficult to get right technically. The placement of the subject in the frame is perfect, as is the high key lighting effect. Excuse me while I go delete a bunch of photos from my hard drive that just don't compare to this brilliance.
