This placed pretty good but I think it should have done much better. BTW, ignore my stupid suggestion from during the voting. For one thing, I didn't mean the row of paintings (which add a sense of place to the photo) but the paper things at the top, over the paintings. I experimented with this just be scrolling the screen up and it actually does not have the effect I was suggesting. The photo is great the way it is. One of my favorites.

This is a very well done photo, not to mention the humor it has. Very good grey tones

how about cropping out the woman to the left or did you feel she emphasised the guy's size? The picture directly behind him distracts. I don't know if this is a case where the photographer should ask the permission of the subject before taklng the photo?

Good use of B&W

The photographer perspective on the bearded guy's perspective is hilarious. Great choice for B&W

I love this for a few reasons. It's funny without being condescending to the little person. I don't know if it was intended but his small bum, protruding a bit is a direct diagonal to her bum. This harmony is strengthened by his obvious relish of her assets. :D My only suggestion is crop a bit off the top to eliminate the row of paintings and make her appear even taller in the frame, emphasizing his smallness.

I find this photo very interesting. The candid shot works well.

this would have looked better if there were more people standing around and all their bodies were cut off at the chest to the height he is, great idea and photo

Very nicely done and the black and white adds to it, however the person's butt on the left takes away alot more. This would score much higher if that part were cropped out. 3
