Yeah, it may have scored lower, but it's a way cool shot to me. The "dressed in black" thing is essential, too, by the way. But what really makes the shot is the one eye that's visible. I'm not as sure as you about the title - to me it's more of an exploration, a seeking. I quite like this one.

I think higher contrast between the sky and greenery (grayery?) would make it pop more.

5.1??? 134th??? 52 votes of 4 or less??? Too bad I am retired from Village Burning! :/

Here's my two cents (and that's probably generous) - The subject is too dark and too centered and her legs are cut off.

Hope that helps.

WOW this is gorgeous. Those clouds are amazing. I like the b&w choice, really adds to this image IMO.

This time you really were robbed. This is a very nice interpretation of the challenge and, in my humble and ignorant opinion, very well done. I like the softness of it which is very much in keeping with the end of summer/approach of autumn, which this picture conveys. In other words, this does NOT suck.

Comment by dahkota:
the man is lost. his eyes squint but it doesn't seem to be against the smoke - its more of a tightening - his lips are the same way. But the upturn of his eyebrows show his confusion. He is lost. At the same time, he doesn't seem to want contact. He's not reaching for it - he's trying to hide. Is that what you wanted to show? Someone who wants to disappear into the background? Into the bushes - he's already melding with them now.
