The face is a bit soft, but overall it works. I like the unique point of view that shows us the fruits of his labor (pun intended). His stance and the expression say a lot too.

A valiant attempt but, the harsh lighting, coupled with the lack of focus will prove detrimental to your score. On the good side, it is a very chaotic scene. You had enough chaos with the ants on the right hand side of the image that you truly did not need those on the left... they only serve to distract.

Good luck with the challenge.

The detail in this image is wonderful, but I wish you had brightened his skin tone so it wouldn't be the same shade at the canvas behind him. His shirt also blends in with the food behind him. The overall contrast of this image is pretty good, but the contrast between the subject and the background is not there.

great shot, and a great score! congrats Alex! I guess the reason IR images of trees are so pleasing the the eye is because they look like blooming cherry trees in springtime

If this were more in focus, I would have really liked this.

Good idea but the harsh light and focus let it down somewhat.
