The big black spot on the left side of the photo is distracting from the focus of the image.

Funny it does look like money and nothing like a bag of skittles. I like your composition. In fact I don't think anything else would work better, IMO. For me it makes her look more like she is up against that wall leaning on it. Despite her flashy outfit she looks shy and the composition enhances that.

Comment by jonfrommk:
OK possibly a bit unfair for me to react to this one as I am not a great fan of 'transclucent reflections' such as this

1. I like the grainy feel which works well with the subject and the fact that it is in B&W.

2. The reflection in the top pane of glass is great, it is sharp and the horizontals compliment the verticals of the frame

3. The transclucence of the bottom pane (for me and to my personal taste) is a bit messy and does not really add to or suit the (grainy) clarity of the rest of the image.

In a challenge I would probably score this a 5/6

I think what I enjoy most about this image, among many things, is how the artist closely mimics the subject in pose...very nice.

I'd really like to like this more, but it just doesn't work for me. the large rectangular areas above are just too dominating, the lines not strong enough except the too strong line dividing the middle

Comment by Melethia:
Cheating. Cats, reflections and windows. SO not fair. AND a window that has warped reflections, and apparently a screen to further texturize the world beyond but brought back. I'm really rather fond of this - would have voted it highly in a free study (kiss of death, but not quite as good as yours - I've not the poetic quality to accompany mine). And I am indeed both flattered and quite honored! Oh, and forgot - without the poetic acoutrements, I'll just say that this speaks to me of protected longing, a yearning to belong to that other world, but a bit calmly assured by the protection within just the same.

The reflection of the building facade in the window has that distorted look like a home movie being played on a projector screen. Well-seen extra content in an ordinary subject. I think you're right - egads, has posthumous been reincarnated as the spawn of bucket and Melethia?
