There are some interesting shapes and shades here, but there's something lacking. Perhaps a little more light at the top and less at the bottom of the glass - or swap the ligh/dark background pieces over.

Good shot. Great contrast and good composition. One of the few shot I like in this challenge.

One of my favs for this challenge. I like the contrasting blurred image and the sharp background. This type of combination does not always work successfully, but it worked great here.

One of my favorites this week. It would be a disservice to give the photo a low mark on account of its overall bluriness. I find the blurring is what really makes you feel like you're in rush hour - it adds to the mood of the photo greatly. Lighting, contrast and composition are great here! A wide variety of tones, + your eyes follow a spiral from the opened door, up the escalator and out of the frame. Good shot!!!

Looks familar... New York? I've been so many places, it's hard to tell. This is a shot I would have trouble taking. All the people staring. =o) I like it.

Nice shot. I like the way you portrayed a sense of urgency with the blurred figures.
