Real versus manufactured

Comment by glad2badad:
This is a fun photo to take in. There are some story lines working here. Not only do you have the real vs window display, you also have young, happy, and possibly single (on phone with smile) vs young, new mom. Neither of which are paying any attention to the window display and appear to be influenced somewhat by your presence (you need a smaller camera). :-)

I also like the sense of movement and direction in the comp.

Nice catch!

He looks like he's done this before :) Love the shadow, it conveys such a different message. Fun stuff

I like this one best Deb. I like the way the shadows in the water stand out more. I would be tempted to make the farther ones a little bit darker. The more I look, the more I like it!

I'm certain it's this image that has influenced the way I've been shooting over the past week or so. Thanks :)

OMG OMG!! There's someone trapped under the ice!! ...oh wait, just a reflection. False alarm.
I'm gaining a better appreciation for these types of shots, much thanks to you, Deb.
