I love the desaturated look that puts attention on the figures near the doorway, but I am disappointed that the woman's face is blurred. Wouldn't mind so much if it were just her hands that were blurred.

Beautiful! The light, the tones, the blur of her head...all perfection! Very well done.

Nice shot.
Looks like it was taken with a fisheye lens. Works for me.

I like the movement, a nice touch considering the fast pace of coffeeshops. 9

This shot has a lot of potential. The motion blur in the face of the waitress doesn't work here, although using it to show the busy motion of the hands was a good idea. Overall, a decent shot.

This has a fun feel to it. The slight blur adds a good sense of movement - without it she would have looked posed. Tough lighting conditions with the darker coffee area vs the well-lit counter area. Did pretty well with it.

Well, my comment time is about up as my 3yr-old just joined me. I asked him what he thought of the "picture" and he said "Looks pretty good" "It's a nice shot".

Like father like son! ;^) Good luck in the challenge.
