Comment by posthumous:
Actually this is utterly photographic. It is a photographic commentary on drawing, NOT drawing. To call this a drawing is like calling a photograph of a car a parking lot.

I did not have time to vote on this challenge but quickly viewed the pictures one night. When I saw this work I thought this one is going to ribbon. Congrats on a very well integrated work of art and photography.

If this doesn't appeal to photography, why did it get 64 10s and a total score of 7.5464?

Seems like most voters did think this is good for DPC. And I totally agree.

I love this Svetlana, but you allready knew that ;)

Absolutely great; your eyes burn through the viewer- as if you are willingly caught and are false-chastising the voyeur-
The light, the crispness of the face and flowing of the headdress are also exquisite.

I'm sure you are used to many compliments on your work, especially your self portraits; so for lack of a way to separate this out from all the others... nice work.

Comment by klstover:
I think we all have things where we're like "okay, how could this possibly ribbon?" and that just makes sense. Most "digital art" stuff, even in expert, gets penalized, but silverfoxx just did a superb job at impacting us visually, and sometimes that trumps other things (i.e. stunning northern light shots winning over and over again even though people get tired of often-used themes, etc). Unlike what Toyan said, I personally think that the 1s aren't because of not liking her but instead just because of what you said, TooCool - this just does not appeal as "photography" to everyone.

Originally posted by TooCool: I'm sorry, I don't get it. I do not understand how this fits into the category of photography. I don't understand why this won a blue ribbon in a photography contest. This is why I don't like the expert editing rule set. I didn't vote in this challenge but if I did, you would have recieved another one. Call me old school but please don't hate me because I am. I can't help it... TC

your opinion is as valuable as the next, i like the pic but i do understand where you're coming from
