In another challenge, this would have been top 3 -- it's really got an amazing feel to it. I think it's a slight stretch on photojournalism, but one I'm willing to make for such a great photograph.

I like the idea and the use of the hands to frame the eyes. The top hand though is a little too blurry for me. It's hard to even tell it's a hand, so I think a slightly larger depth of field would have helped.

Comment by Turbotech:
Good shot. Good Composition. Light is a little harsh on the eye. YOu get a seven.

I'm back to your shot to add a little comment. I really like this and gave it an 8 and at second looks still believe I'm on target. The soft blue tint here is so nice to my eye.
I also like the foreground out of focus. This is not popular with a lot of the voters here.......to me it's awesome. These are pretty eyes, interesting shot, clear, clean, in focus and on topic!! Good work. Justine

Comment by Swashbuckler:
Sorry, but I just don't like your "frame". The blue aspect is (IMO) on the weaker side (barely blue?). The shoulder is distracting. 6 Swash

I think this is a cool shot that probably is gonna suffer from the "this doesn't make me think blue" problem. Sorry about that. Good use of dof. ~indi
