strong pic with nice leading lines. Kudos on your processing to maximize imopact.

Good feel and nice composition to this shot. This could be the same boy from another picture in this challenge 15 years later. And who knows where this young man will be 15 years from now. Nice shot.

The background behind the head is distracting...

I'm sure the title reflects what you see when you look at this shot, but to me this image isn't mysterious at all.

It's a nice enough photo outside the challenge, although I wonder what enhancing the contrast might do. 4.

Nice processing. Looks like someone has been working with their Joey DVD. the M&M feel is mild to me, but not too bad. The clouds add to the feel. 6

This one has feeling for me. Where's he going? What's his plan? Does he see the rain clouds? Nice picture!

I love the colours and the finishing.

The processing might appeal to many - it is done in the "DPC flavor of the month" style. I'm rarely keen on it, and I can not see any magic or mystery here. 3

Photo has a lot of interest in it. The colours are pleasant. The point of view - where the lines bifurcate - enhances this image.
