Do you know what really draws my eye - the writing on the mirror.

Overall the image is a little uninspiring, so lets examine it and work out what the various problems are.

The mirror is where you want the viewer to look I guess, so why have such a big area of wall in the frame? zoom in and get rid of unwanted space. Especially that ugly dark shadow.

Now the refelction. The hand is really not sharp, but thats your main subject. There is a stray hand just half in the mirror, you need to ensure that small problems are dealt with at the time of shooting.

The writing on the mirror ... theres not much you can do about that except use a different mirror or clone it out in PS. However, it IS distracting. The other option you could have gone for would be to make the writing THE central theme by making thats sharp and contrasty whilst the other elements recede.

As it is there are lots of learning points to work on here.

I know it is possible to get the mirror images more in focus, because I have done at lot of experiementing with this in a moving car...interesting angle though.

NICE shot, Carl. Love the blemished fender. Sweet tonalities you have here, spot-on framing-up of the shot. It's not an image that leaps up and demands attention, but it has a certain purity that appeals to me greatly.

Colours in the bottom of the frame don't look natural at all. Crazy fog though! And I like the clear sky above.

The green tint is a little to strong for my taste

Great picture of rooftops and the title meets the challenge. Could've done with a person or car right in the forground to be the subject of the title.

Good last words, but the shot doesn't relate to it. You need to show someone getting lost. :)

This is eerie. The foreground and high sky are so clear compared to the ghostly buildings in the middle. It almost looks like a composite of several images (I'm not saying it *is*, just that it looks like it). Very nice.
