I didn't comment on this during the challenge - so many entries, but I did vote it a 7. It was different and almost nostalgic with the sense of grain, yet no sepia filter, which I liked. Imaginative and artistic.

What a lovely emotive image. He has almost taken on the quality of a church statue or a cherub. Wonderful post processing.

The grayed out-ness of it isn't really working for me, but I do enjoy the lighting and emotion.
