Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The simplicity of the image once again proves to us - that less is more- the simple shapes of a triangle and a circle also serve as a point of interest drawing us into the image in order to peruse it further. A clever addition to an extremely well composed image. The black and white effect is also a perfect choice. Congrats and well done!

Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The emotion displayed in this image is unbelievable. As a rule of thumb one would normally look at the face for signs of emotive feelings and behavior. The way his hand is displayed closing off his facial features says it all. This proves that expressive feelings can be displayed through any part of the human anatomy -this would surprise many an individual. The low key works well as one feels the man is grappling with issues which have darkened his soul. Congrats and well done!

Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The clever and humorous nature of this image is definitely an aspect which makes one linger on the image longer than usual. Faceless portraiture was definitely taken to the extreme here- this makes one ponder as to what his real face looked like before the exclusion This does - however - make one peruse the image longer than usual. Congrats and well done!

Meet the judge

Firstly , thank you for entering my challenge. This image has of girl alone says so much to me. With youth on her side it also comes with it's pressures and problems- has she died her hair to fit in with the so-called "crowd"- or is it a pathway to self discovery? Although we don't see her face- and wonder if she is covering it on purpose so we can't read her true feelings? Unfortunately her slumped over body posture proves a more desperate and depressive state of affairs which is a concerning factor. Congrats and well done!

Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The most distinct feature of this image is once again proving- that less is more- the simple back view of the woman against a paisley wall works wonders with the concepts of negative space and minimalism- obviously drawing one's attention to the main point of interest- the woman . I appreciate the unusual usage of the landscape format in the image as it tends to make the image slightly more unusual than the run of the mill. Congrats and well done!
