Too posed - or at any rate, too posed-looking - to be truly affecting. Quite like the way the subject isn't lit, if you see what I mean. But it feels too obvious. Looks like someone with a hangover, more than someone deperate.

This is the second naked breakdown person I have seen in this challenge. The funny part is when people get down and out, I don't think they get naked -- do they? Naturally when we are down and alone, we want to cover up and go away. We cover up to escape, to not be seen IMO. If he was clothed, I would have liked it better. You convey the breakdown feeling well.

Great emotive photo. Use of light and black & white is wonderful. Focus is good, I like the composition of the piece. There does seem to be some odd color wave affect on the walls, possibly from resizing. Great image. 8

The stark composition, low key, and the model's pose and nudity do suggest a breakdown and the loneliness associated with it. Not a pretty photo, but a moving one.

It seems to me the picture tries too hard to be "Art" with a capital "A." I don't mind staged shots, but this one seems *too* staged. It doesn't seem real or honest. Sorry. I do like the composition, though. The placement of your subject heightens the feeling you're going for.
