Comment by Alicia:
This image imparts a sense of impermanence, a fleeting quality, even though nothing is really moving. The guy looks like he's waiting to be picked up, in the dark of the night, while the city behind him blazes. It makes me want to know why he's leaving. This is an excellent capture for the very reason that it invokes intense curiosity (in me, at least). For hand held and the high ISO it's pretty sharp and detailed.

This is a really cool shot! I love the non-existent background (but I'm partial to that, even though some people really don't like it.) I'd actually be tempted to clone out the petals of the flower and just leave the stamen.

Love the grain. Love the Sepia-n feel. Love her look, and love her gesture. I may not be qualified to comment on the tilt-shift aspect of it, but I like the image, It made me look at the screen for longer than 3 seconds, which is rare. I may have cropped it to exclude the edge of the seat to the right though. Otherwise, brilliant!

Don't we all have our "dark sides" hidden somewhere? :) Nicely photographed.
