The image is really to small to see much of the detail. I thin it is a street lined by trees on each side which would be a nice composition if I could see it more clearly. Sorry.

The image is a bit overexposed.

Alone in Tokyo

Great shot (colors and composition). Very impressive. The only critique I might have and I'm not sure how easily it could be corrected as you don't want to crop any more of that great neon background is that the bright spot on the lower left corner (flare of some type) is a bit distracting.

(btw, this would be perfect IMO for the new Neon sign challenge)

Score: 8.

"Rosita"

Great shot. Merely a suggestion, but after the challenge, you may want to clone out the tiny reflective dot on the man's collar. It' probably the zipper top, but it makes it look like there is dust on the lens or some foreign object on the glass. Very nice b/w shot and composition. 8.

I don't count off for borders but this one really distracts in my opinion. A solid dark (black) border on the edges would help this one. Right now the current border not only separates part of the picture, but it also cuts through part of your subject (the model's right arm). While I don't take off, I would likely give the photo an extra point for those corrections. Score: 6.

Nice use of selective color. I would like to see how it turns out if the boat too was in color (if it is a color that would enhance).

Fantastic colors and overall composition. The bright reflections in the eyes are the only thing in the photo that sidstracts. There may have been too much going on in the eyes to simply clone, but that might be one area to look at to further enhance this nice image. 8.

Nice b/w shot. The galre in each lens of the glasses is a little distracting.

I'm don't deduct for borders, but I think a black border would have been a better choice. The bright white (and thickness) draw my eyes to the outsides rather than to the subject of the picture. Great composition. 7.
