Ok how do I get so lucky, I get some of the best photos to critique. You did an awesome job and a very well deserved ribbon! The first thing that grabbed me was the head missing, great idea(can you tell I am a girl? My husband of course noticed the legs). The crop is very unique and demands attention. I think the hand poses of the model are great, the middle finger is very suttle. I think a brighter nail polish would have taken away from the overall effect of the shot (like someone had commented). I really don't see anything I would change you did an excellent job! Congrats!

Personally I think "Steroids do not lead to success" is a prefect entry for the Cheater! challenge. I would say the voters agree as well, I thought it would have been top 10 but hey 11 is pretty darn decent. What I think grabs my attention the most is the drip on the needle, awesome choice using green. The green is such a great contrast with the background and liquid in the needle, plus who wants something green injected into them. The shallow depth of field give a different perspective that really allows the voter to see what the subject is. Also normally I am not a fan of adding a border but I do think you made the right decision in using one. I can't think of anything I would change. Keep up the awesome work!
