Comment by Pidd:
This thumbnail captured my attention and, although I'm not allowed to vote, I just had to let you know how wonderful I think it is. The light is almost as much of a focal point as your subject on the park bench. Lighting up that whole side of the picture while leaving the left cast in shadow really emphasizes the theme of the challenge. My only regret is I do wish the trash weren't there. It can detracts just a little bit. But that's a very minor issue. If I were voting, this would surely be a 9 or 10 for me.

I can almost hear creepy music, as though she's the subject of a film and a creature is about to pop out of the woods :) Nice crisp B&W here... well done!

Did you set this shot up or catch it? This is great. It seems slightly out of focus, but it works anyway. Perhaps the focus was intentionally a little off. Only thing that could make it better would be no trashcan, but I agree that you needed to leave the extra space in on the left. 9.
