Well, there's ambiguity, which is good, but then there's lack of clarity, which may not be. I like this one on some levels - the composition of the three women and their expressions - But the intruding arm definitely needs to be burned down, as it grabs the eye and pulls it from the skull , and when all is said and done, I'm left scratching my head.
Nicely executed. Still, I'm not making a connection. Perhaps it's because none of the subjects in the image seem in any way engaged with each other or what's going on. It's hard to be interested when no one in the frame is.
