Congrats on the red. Great shot of the city and the rain soaked figure.

Like the context of the photo. Exposure is just right to give the scene some drama of the stormy river against the city back drop and the subject soaking it in.

The posture and droopy t-thirt say a lot about the subject. Maybe all we need to know. I think this shot has the canny eye of a Brooklyn resident.

Timeless picture. The strong B/w contrast makes this picture really appealing. I keep looking at those waterdrops on the umbrella.
A 7 from me

My top pick! Beautifully photographed and edited, with that great bridge in the background.
I too love being out in the rain.

Art? It�s in the eye of the beholder, I�d say, and I think this is lovely. It may be snowy and blue (and wondrously blue at that) but it has such warmth! Even though our two main figures are small in the overall picture (and rightly so!) you can tell by their postures that there�s a great day in store. The cars are snowed in (those right side guys have it worse than the left side), the light is soft and welcoming, the trees forming their quiet cathedral, and the sled puller has probably been blessed with a �snow day� off from work. How can it not be a great day?
