Comment by Paul:
I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: I like this - I like the way it references / pokes fun(?) at Damien Hirst's For The Love of God. I love the clarity of the jewellery and how its 'man-madeness' contrasts with the small skull and the earthy tones of the background. I also like that you have shot this - by that I mean the boldness of the work and how it is completely contrived. All photography is contrived since it is consciously framed in both space and time. This work is far more honest in that regard than most.

Critical stuff: Nothing at all.

Overall: Great image; really refreshing too!

Comment by KDO:
Wow, intense and interesting image. I did a double-take, which, for me, is a good thing. I would move the focal point a bit to align it with "rule of thirds."

Great image. I'd love to see the text with credits given, like you usually see on a real movie poster. The edit is fantastic. 8

Great use of negative space and great lighting.

My only change might be to leave a little more space at the bottom and on the left.

Perhaps to literal, but I like the lighting and color. Well done!

A lot of children holding balloons shot from behind in this challenge, but this one stands out for the real feeling of vulnerability I get. The brances and darkness are menacing and the child seems so undefended (not even shoes). Nice mood and a high score from me.
