Nice perspective. The stoplight could have been a distraction, but I think it works here, wit the way you framed it all.

Very nice detail in the fur, eyes are nice and clear. I like the crop and textures.

Comment by Ecce_Signum:
Excellent composition here and a very good conversion to B&W. My only niggle is the blown out sky in the centre and as it looks as if you used everything you could for a slow exposure to blur the sea a little. Maybe multiple exposures would have worked better (am trusting you used a tripod?). Other than the sky I can't fault this, and, whilst not a lover of frames (especialy fancy ones) I think you proved that the right frame for the right picture is more judgement than luck and suits the image well.

This is so absolutely humdrum that I'm slightly stopped in my tracks by it. Can't quite decide if I'm missing something or seduced by the simplicity of it.

Directions to this place, please. I need to walk there, at this exact time, with that man on the street and those precise lights on. It is, in its way, perfect, and a delight to my eyes.

Everything here leads me to the woman . . . the power lines, the lighting, the contrast . . . it all makes me want to see her, to know her, in all her monochrome and glowing glory. Wonderful.

An excellent closeup portrait and the frame you chose presents it very well.

live the shot, but i think the border is a little to large kinda take away from the pic.

Love the line of the coast. Very atmospheric. I'm not sure about the frame - it seems a bit limiting with the dramatic sky and the sweeping lines.
