I like this. The composition of the shot feels very heavy to the right (because of her very dark clothes), but it seems to work.

I like this image -- I was one of your 7's. For me (and I may be slow) it was a tad disorienting at first and then it took a moment to sort out what I was looking at. Requiring the viewer to linger in order to understand can be a wonderful thing, but my theory on why this underachieved in score that some voters in a hurry may have blown past it without taking a moment. Much as blindjustice said, the tones and contrasts are terrific. I love the big smiles and bare legs and shoulders of the dancers contrasted by the more dour, bundled riders. I wonder if you had cropped just a tiny bit higher and/or lower so folks could recognize it is a double decker bus a bit more quickly if this might have scored higher.

Great silvery smooth tones, and a wonderful juxtaposition of over-cheerful dancers and bored looking tourists.

I love the way her smile peeks out over the top of the scarf. Excellent form, by the way.
