This photo took time and thought in order to bring it about. The charred ground might symbolize burned hopes and dreams. An adult in the dirt is something that makes one stop and look. I think it portrays and evokes feeling of desolation too. But it might make some feel uncomfortable. Perhaps you did it too well.

Man, this one touches my soul.. I've been looking at it for several minutes. I'm an orphan and I feel that you expressed the pain and grief extremely well.

Gets a 10 from me and added to favorites.

Call me sick and twisted, but I find this humorous because it is so caricatured. I do like it alot though. Even the title is over the top. 7

I'm not sure what to think of this image. My first impression is that I don't really like it, but I can't think of any suggestions, other than if the model had indeed passed out, her head wouldn't be comfortably resting on her arm. Her head would be on the floor. But that's a minor picky detail. I'm not sure whether the desat works or not. Maybe white balance problems in the original image, but it's hard to tell.
