Beautifully composed. The warm sepia is a nice balance to the cold imagery.

Steve has a Lensbaby? That can only mean trouble!

Good trouble, of course. I like the thought and story you put behind this. It has a good candid, voyeuristic feel, and I like that his face is just on the fringes of the sweet spot versus dead center inside it.

Excellent! Is this one of the pinhole/zoneplate attachments?

Good one, Joe, and a respectable finish. You got a nine from me. You nailed the challenge criteria. Good use of compositional technique here also...

I gave this an eight. Should have guessed it was you. Excellent! Sorry it didn't do better for you...

Congrats on another ribbon, Deb! With candid street photography, I still go back and forth between manual and auto focus, but some of my best (or luckiest) shots were done with manual focus. Here, anticipating a window shopper, you could have set the focus and probably even the exposure in advance. For kicks, you could have preset everything and used time lapse, one shot per minute, and then seen what you ended up with. Technicals and could-a-been's aside, this is still great!

Blue milk? Work on the color balance, or use a neutral colored bowl.
