Comment by De Sousa:
The idea behind the Posthumous Ribbon is to encourage you to break the rules, to find new and different ways to express yourself. To free your mind to think clearly toward the solution that is certain to come, to laugh at world and at life, not doing what others are expecting you to do, but just following and listening to what's in your heart. DPC it̢۪s a wonderful learning place where everyone should be supported on their way to be a photographer. A special attention should be aimed to those working hard with different views and approaches to photography, those not aligned with the mainstream taste and receiving no recognition. It̢۪s our responsibility to support these photographers creating diversity and expressing different visions. Being active at the Posthumous thread it̢۪s the best way to do it. Being active at the Posthumous thread it̢۪s the best way to protect your and the other̢۪s freedom of being different. Thanks for taking the time to enter this challenge. Stay wild.

Great black and white processing. I like that so much of the dark is lost in the shadows. Beautiful angles in the windows.

Comment by ubique:
I like the picture for its tonal and graphic presence; all those great blocks of darkness and light, all those slightly spherical lines of perspective, but I think it would be far better without the girl in it. Also more appropriate to the book title, which I assume must have been itself fairly lightly chosen.

good energy to this shot, not just the model but the composition with its powerful diagonals.
