Excellent perspective and lighting. A lot of mystery with the depth of field.

Wow, that looks like my town. And I love how the train isn't moving but the buildings are. Or at least the lens is. Cool shot.

Certainly a different take on the challenge and one that I'm sure will have a lot more views than votes :- )

For me this is really two seperate pictures in one. On the plus side the hat is crisp clean and focussed which is positive - but the other section of the picture is photographically not so strong. The B&W conversion has left slightly muddy skin tones and the model doesn't quite seem to be in focus. As she is a major element of the picture, this is clearly a distraction - and perhaps not in the way you intended :- )

I am not sure about the lighting here. I imagine you purposely disattended the body so that the hat appears as the main subject. I suspect it would have ended up looking better with more balanced lighting between the 2 subjects and without the hard shadow under the hat. Just my opinion.
