 I think this image went over a lot of peoples heads, and the superhero challenge seemed to hurt it as people thought it was a superhero reject... Thanks to every one who gave interesting comments. If I could give a suggestion now about how we at dpc comment. Think about a image as a story not as a stock photograph that's just supposed to look pretty...

It is an intriguing and provocative image, one that makes people think... Good stuff!

REALLY funky and avant garde. Probably shook up a few DPCers hee hee Sorry it didn't score higher. It should have.

I don't know why, but when I saw this I immediatly thought of the painting Son of Man.

PM me, I have to know if the slight head tilt was an artistic statement about going green or an accident. (It won't change my score, I'm just dying to know which side of the issue you were representing ha ha)

what a strange idea here? what made you think of it? the bag over the mans face is a nice touch, the green is nice and bright. the bottom of the photo seems pretty dark though

Interesting picture, I think a little backlighting would have been nice so we could see his outline a little more.

I'm not sure what to think here. The pixelation on his collar is obvious. I'm guessing he is a Superpowers outtake. 6

I don't quite get why his face is covered, an interesting shot though

Very out of the box, like that about it, nice lighting as well, 8 from me, nicely done.

Hmmm... A leftover from the Super Powers challenge? I hope so... 'cause I can't see any other reason for this oddity. *grin* I like the green and the suit... but, I'm struggling to find purpose for this... *sigh* Perhaps I'm just a tad bit "slow" on the uptake, though, and everyone else 'gets' this image right off. I do think it's very well lit. (not voting yet)

Is this in celebration of Magritte's birthday? That was this month, right?
