Amusing and original :) I wonder if a tighter cropping would have worked better by giving more presence to the, hemm, facial expressions of the extenders :) Also, cropping more would have helped removing the shadows on the left and right, they are a bit distracting. Very nice soft shadows.

I was prepared to low vote this as a shoehorn from the thumbnail view, but she DOES have a gas station on her shirt. Fits the challenge in a unique way, IMO.

Background is distracting, eyes aren't sharp and lighting is dull and feels really forced to fit the challenge.

Hmmmm, yes, you have tried to tie this to the Challenge with the title, but that doesn't really work for me. She looks a little young to be a gas station owner. The shirt does have connections to the title, so I can see that meets the challenge. Not a fan of the angle of the shot, the stance, the background, or the colours.

Meeting the Challenge more strongly and in a more obvious way, photographing against something that is not distracting (plain wall perhaps, or just the curtains, not the roof as well) PP the colours will all help later challenges.
