2nd place
Without by LynEve

allisontaylor: Your narrative fits the image so well. Very apt that the space of waiting is so large... : ) Very artistic and original.

0930_23: Good contest entry LE. The empty feeling of loneliness and hurt can be devastating.

3rd place
The unfortunate by Zethus

FlimBB: Congratulations. An excellent work indeed.

coram9: I think this image works so well because of the perspective. You are not a passer by, somehow superior to the homeless man, but you have become one of the homeless, on the cold ground looking out of a box. You make the viewer part of that situation and unable to just walk on by. Well done.

4th place
Shattered by casechaser

purmusic: Nice one, John.

Thumbnail caught my eye in and amongst the new images.. and here I be.

Interesting to me, in that in employing a warmer palette, which seemingly (and might) contradict the visual message of sorts ... that is, until one reads your accompanying narrative.


Her mouth (area) is a tad more prominent. Curious if by design, creative aim?

And the additional texturing is exquisite. The final image is very polished.


And but of course, thank you for sharing this thought provoking piece with us.


p.s. Any use of displacement maps?

Looks to be, and if not and for your creative future consideration.. here you go, in case unawares:

Photoshop Tutorial: Displacement Maps

Loads of other tutorials out there as well, the above one is quite succinct and concise.
