What a brilliant composition! It looks self-evident now that you've done it, but it would have been easy to get this all wrong, and you didn't. You got it exactly right, in my view. 8

Fantastic overall sharpness, tonality is great as well.

Very nice in black & white. Gives a boost to the starkness you typically find in a waiting room.

Light is wonderful, a bit bright over by the woman, but I think that helps focus your attention on her more than detracting.

Fits the subject very well. I really like the cleanliness of the image. 9.

Excellent depiction of passing time that we can all relate to. A Forced Reality.

A nice candid. I wonder whether cropping out the chair on the left would make a difference, as I feel that it intrudes a bit.

Great composition and lighting. The crop to the left is somewhat disappointing and the whole shot feels it should have been rotated slightly clockwise (look at the convergence of the horizontal lines in the glass blocks by the subject). Very fitting for the theme, and nice use of B&W - hope this does well.

Great image - one of my favorites. The black and white, the angle, the lighting, the patterns... they all work to perfection a strong 10 from me
