Nice shot, I like that you captured his involvement and concentration, his eye is on his work and his muscles are flexed. The sun lighting his shirt, the white is well detailed and not blown out, and skin is lovely, It would have been nice to get a bit more light on his face, but that is not always possible in a candid. I don't mind the dark background it focuses me on the man. Good capture.

A tad too dark, but great shot all the same.

Unreal! Who knows what voters are thinking these days. It's turnouts like this one that have made me not participate much anymore. Great picture!

Thanks for all the positive comments, this was actuall a very quick snap of my decorators, whom I forced into the pose, although they did seem to enjoy it. The title was amusing enough for me, but I do take into account everyones opinions. I didn't expect to get very far with this to tell you the truth, so I am not dissapointed and have got used to the 1's 2's and 3's that seem to bewitch some of the more meager minds on DPC.

This really is a wonderfully unique photo. I also voted it high and am suprised at its ranking.

This MIGHT be a case of a rambling, confusing title affecting its value in the mind of the viewer. Usually the more complex the photo, the simpler the title; is a good guideline. Maybe just calling it "4" and letting the viewer use their imagination to sort it all out, would have been more prudent. That said, this is an exceptionally fine photograph no matter the title. My comments above only apply to competitive scoring situations.
