Very pleased to see this end up so near the top. Nice to know that "busy" but very well composed, exposed, and presented can still do well here.

Ah I love this shot, such beautiful movement. The people like ghosts moving in the foreground and the reflections in the windows make it look like cities overlapping.

I think the people walking by and the cars realy distract from the building you're trying to photograph.

Way Cool! Good find....nice setup with it "tucked away" while the world whizzes past. If this doesn't hit the Top 10, I'm nominating it for a Posthumous Ribbon! 8

The jumble of traffic and pedestrians contribute to hiding the Royal Society building. They help this meet the challenge, but I have a feeling of irritation at not being able to have an unobstructed view up the narrow opening -- perhaps the point you are making.

Cool subtle shot, I think the B&W really adds to the feel of this shot. I also feel that the motion blur of the people and cars helps convey the "tucked away" feel of the building from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Well thought out and well done!

Perfect for this challenge. I love the way you've managed to spotlight your subject, without it being noticeable at all. Blur of people and cars is excellent. Very nice work.

London? I know I've seen this somewhere. I don't like the dark blurry figures near center. IMHO the double-decker bus blocks out too much of your intended scene. Otherwise nice shot.

Nice concept, but a little too busy and distracting.

A fleeting moment nicely captured. Ars longa, vita brevis?

I expected to see more shots like this, I think it's very true to the challenge. Great!

Fantastic. Superb conversion and daring composition which adds to the effect you're creating. A Mr Saberi creation perhaps?

I dont mind the movement but there are too many dark moving shapes.
