love it! Wish you hadn't cut off the top of your head. Maybe a portrait instead of a landscape? The soft focus really creates a cool mood. I'm sure others dislike the lack of sharpness, but I think it works here.
I'm sure you're getting lots of comments saying that your portrait is blurry and out of focus, but I would just like to say that I really like this photo. I like the slight shadow on the wall, the simple colors, and i like the soft focus. Good luck.
oooops its almost ten for me for the concept, i really like the idea, but the image is quite blurry in my screen. if i were you i will crop it, all white background, well, if i followed my criteria, you i still got a high score from me...good luck to the challenge.
Very out of focus ... weird pose ... snapshot expression .... overlit ... I love it! I'll give ya a 9 just for originality .... and cause I like your sweater/ dresshirt combo :-)
