This is striking! Thanks for sharing so much of how you did it. It's a great study in getting this very unique effect of your subjects popping like that in such a dramatic 3-dimensional way.

That guy does NOT seem interested. LOL Great set up. The one in the back left - is she pregnant?

really nice shot. Even though her face does look a bit unnatural (compared to her shoulders) being so pale I like it as it reminds me of the Oriental white face paint they they used to use a lot. I personally feel that he head is tilted a little bit too far. In the head of the moment its always hard to look at the details but there is something white in her hair and there is a smudge (i think) above her left eye.

Great eyes and teeth! Nicely posed, well lit. Backround burning to make the subjects pop had its desired effect.

Great set-up and very convincing. Lighting is spot on. I can't think of anything to deduct - 10

A majority of the pictures in this challenge are either very literal interpretations or blatant shoehorns with little to no connection to the titles/lyrics. It's refreshing to see that this captures the essence of the song perfectly. The expression of the "boxer" portrays the loneliness and hardships he faces living in the city. You get a well deserved 10. =)
