This could have scored very well. Image wise on the rightside its missing the detail in the brick. Brightness wise It can work. Im still trying to understand the title, it think it was mis-named. The utter fear in the eyes, the male hand reaching out. Heck this thing should have been titled dead end relationship. That what I thought of when I first saw it. |

Ok, I didn't look at other comments, so this is all me. By looking at the scores, you seem to have a done a good job with your idea, but the idea had limits. In other words, this picture doesn't really have the ability to soar (or in this case, perhaps, really creep people out).
Although it is Time reaching for the subject, I'm not sure the wristwatch helps the picture. The picture probably suffers the most from low contrast in an attempt to be low-key. I goofed a bit in PS and think the picture looks better with the following change (you can try this in PS). Boost contrast by +70 and lower brightness by -7. It's really rough, but I think this has more punch.
A final confusing portion to the photo is why Time has chosen to catch up with this gal in her undies in a basement. What are you trying to say here? |

I see this and immediately think of the end of that god awful movie, "The Blair Witch Project".
Although it's kind of dark (perhaps that was the intent), I think it fits the challenge very well and is well composed. |

the image stands up very well on it's ow. I realize the watch was included to signify time however without the watch and title I would have seen this as a very powerful image... Very well done however... :) |

Forgive me if my monitor is just dark, but I think I'd like to see more lighting in the persons face and body. I think the persons expression makes or breaks this photo. |

The light is rather flat; I think that harsher lighting and more contrast would have improved the image. |
