As an ignorant viewer, I can understand why this image received the score that it did. I had to look up the title myself. Knowing (now) what the title means, I can see the shot in a different light and I find the concept beautiful. Unfortunately, I doubt most voters who didn't understand the title took the time to look it up (or really look at the image) to help them truly understand your meaning. I'm pretty sure you also got hit by the "I see some noise, and I don't like it." crowd.

Overall, I'd say this is a beautiful, intelligent entry that just wasn't DPC-friendly enough to hit the 5+ mark. I say great work, and keep 'em comin'!

Please PM me if you have any questions or comments.

For my personal taste there is too much fence in the foreground…

I really love the colors on this. And I'm giving you extra credit for being so OOB.

Well for making me Goggle your title you get a comment.Il prigioniero = The Prisoner. Love the idea, don't care for the portrait crop and I find the flowers distracting. I think a step or two closer to the gate would have opened the framing up and helped a bit. You have a little too much color noise going for my liking and not enough for a good effect. IMO
Best of luck. Scott

Maybe a more tightly cropped frame? He seems very little and very centered.
