The blue here is certainly forced, but it does work. Very effective image - simple yet complex at the same time. Nice concept. Well done.

A ghostly image that I wasn't sure about on first view. As I look more, I see interestingness.

Look like an image flipped upside down and turned negative. Like the touch.
