i just joined this site today. i have been looking at a lot of the photos. this one is one of my favorites. some one made the comment about learning to shoot b&w. i think maybe they need to adjust their monitor. i think this photo has a good tonal range and is a very nice b&w. the cropping doesnt bother me in the least. to me the best photographs are the ones that stir the emotions in the viewers. this photo should be judged on that basis more than the techncal side, which i dont think is lacking at all. keep up the good work.

you could have cropped it so there was only one row of pixels across the top that contained the street lamp. i'm pretty sure no one would notice or comprehend it. suppose then you'd have to crop the shoes at the bottom to match ?

Cropping Explanation: I cropped the top of her hat because there was a street lamp behind her and it looked like it was coming out of the top of her head. To address whether or not she'd 'make it', in spite of the fact that she's starting in Alaska, she is a determined little girl and I am she she'd find a way. Thanks for all the comments.

I totally love this shot. Would've done well in people and b&w as well as this challenge. If only you hadn't cropped the top of her hat and I think I would've tried positioning her a little further to the right in the shot. Anyway, in my top 10.

Very nice. I love the composition, especially the streetlamps lined up in the background. It seems a bit too staged for me, but still appealing.

This is a wonderfully set up shot.. All I see that might need improvement is the etail could have been clearer, and it looks like you may have cropped a little close. Otherwise, super!
