Very nice. Looks like the cape flats with table mountain in the background.

A little late on the comment, but I gave this an 8. Eerily quiescent-yet-confrontational, is my initial reaction. Well seen and well made.

Strange, confrontational picture. I can almost hear them saying "how dare you see us this way?"

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: I like the idea behind this shot - the semi-silhouettes, the overt grain and vignette, and the stark light. I wonder what their story is too.

Critical stuff: Your editing choices may be seen by some to be a little odd.

Overall: An image that benefits from the understanding that less is sometimes / often more.

[Not sure why my comment got truncated - finished it off now]

normally I do not like noise in the pictures, but in this one it makes it really standout

Sorry I don't get it. Its grainy, out of focus and doesn't tell a story. - 2

not quite sure what you were going for here. Too much blur and grain.

Excellent shot. Great grainy B&W.

Dreamlike yet journalistic. A peek into private lives.

This is a great image, made by the mono tones, the blur, the grain, the vignetting but I wouldn't be surprised if its not to everyones taste here, good luck with it.
