Nice idea! I like this overall though find the eyes too much in shadow and focus a little soft.

Oooh I like this - original, quirky and one of the better colour and b/w combos I've seen lately (getting fed up of arbitrary desats of all colours but one). This is a really cool and visually fun image.

Composition works very well, as so colours.

I'm not always a fan of high contrast or very dark images but I think this is an excellent example of both.

Very novel framing idea - a picture that draws one in and makes on look.

Nice! I've seen similar framing and cropping in some magazines recently and I think this is a great example. I really like the grainy feel. Not at all keen on border.

Shattered and Shuttered

That mirror mosaic is beautiful. This is a subtle portrait and I like that it shows your environment, whether or not it's "home". Would like just a touch more light on your face or less on your shirt.

Regarding the comment about the blue cast - ice from glaciers has often been compressed at much higher pressures than regular ice cubes that you'll be used to seeing up close. That compression does actually mean that icebergs have a blue hue. This is just how I remember them looking, hue and all.

Stuff Magazine - or - Playboy

Your 25 1s will be from the people who found the partial nudity offensive. Not a shock really. Sad but surely somewhat predictable.

For what it's worth I think it's unfair to hit out at the laughing horse shot - like it or not I think it's a superb shot and also one that would be likely to make it onto a cover of magazines on that subject.

Edit to correct typo. Sheesh! :o)

I'm with Brumos!
And I must disagree with a comment below - it's precisely the range of real expressions - from calm to excited to absolutely terrified/ in pain - that makes this such an excellent shot in my opinion.
