Comment by ubique:
This reminded me immediately of Keith Carter's 'Fireflies'.

Just as an aside (please pardon the diversion), how good is Keith Carter? If I could see the work of only three photographers for the rest of my life, Keith Carter would be well-placed on the podium, clutching a trophy and beaming back at me.

But let's get right back to you and your picture. It's a really beautiful photograph, everything that a durable photograph should be. It's a photograph-as-object, so you'd better print it. Not big; not for the wall. Print it small, print it only once, and keep it in a drawer or a chocolate box, where all your most imperishable objects belong. Thank you.

I really like the depth in this image, Jane. There's a meaningful story to this one as well. Well done.

What a powerful juxtaposition of the profile and the sign. Perfectly composed. Brilliant example of "pure" photographic art (unless I'm a fool).

Comment by posthumous:
good layering that spirals into the picture, leading ultimately nowhere, but that's the point.

Lots to think about in this. One of my favorites in the challenge.

Comment by streetpigeon:
Wonderful recession of planes and vistas, transfixing for the viewer as perhaps for the shadowed figure to the left as well. The excellent title takes the stop sign as a second terminus. The tension is palpable, yet the world does go on beyond the sign, offering more. Fine image.
