I had the opportunity to see this photo before it was submitted in the challenge, if there has never been a photo properly titled, there is one now. Unfortunately this entry was not the way I saw it. The photo I saw would finish this challenge in the top three. Composition is impactful!

Good texture in the face. I find the "stuff" in the background a bit distracting. Maybe a more solid background?

Seems a little too bright overall. But the light shows the textures on the subject very well.

woa...creepy! It may have been more effective if the background was solid

This would've been better with a different background. It's also too bright.

I really think if you subtracted, the very distracting background you have a very high placing entry. I am sure you have already got comments like that. So I would like to tell you what else MAY help. The subject is looking up, and to the right, and you have all this extra space, but none in the direction of the eyes. I think maybe the right side should be cropped off a little and the space to the top should have a little bit more. The Hue/Saturation may of been a cool option too, or maybe even complete desaturation turning it B&W. The light could of also been enhanced to show more shadow, giving much more depth. I am not trying to be over critical here, not in the least, I just really like the picture, and think you could of got into the top ten with a couple of minor adjustments. Still even with that said I voted you into the better half of the submissions.

Lighting is harsh and too even to bring out the true texture on this.
