My top pick though I find nothing distracting - least of all the couple in the upper right and the fact that the perspective puts a bar across their faces. Genius.

I really wish you hadn't done the toning on this one. I think it takes away from a spectacular impact. With everything being so much the same other than the people, just doing a B&W or sepia, of something that made everything feel like the same scene, would have given much more of an "oh!" when I got to the people. I think this could have rated around an 8-9, but it ends up as a 6 as is. Just thought I'd muse out loud... It is a great find -- especially the line going straight across the faces.

(btw, this photo just made me create a whole new "dpc bugs the crap out of me" thread. All because of the lines going through the faces. I found myself irritated at the line. finding it to be lousy placement, finding it to be a problem in the photograph, and then finding it to be fascinating. Realizing how unimportant faces are. I always knew this. I love the photos from behind, photos where you're not seeing the faces. But I never realized just how good it was to obscure a face through unconventional means. The photo is still a 6 because of the toning. But I wanted you to realize just how much I'm enjoying the discoveries here. :)

Ignore all of this if you'd like. Just thinking out loud. :)
