kind of looks like a melted hershey kiss and a deformed human ear all in one.
yet I still like it and it is amongst my top votes for this challenge.
sorry I couldn't give any constructive help with my comment.

To Andre Kertesz; an appreciation

I don't know who the tribute is to, but I trust you!
I really like the whole scene, but I think I would prefer a little more contrast in the black and whites.
there just seems to be too much "grey" in it.
but then again maybe that's what the tribute person does?
I'll never know!!!!!

great sepia/duo tone-works great for this image.
i would have like to have seen more of the person underneath, but maybe that was your intent?
and maybe perhaps a bigger image?
actually, maybe there isn't a person underneath?
maybe he has just suffered a horrific motorcycle accident and his his arms are mangled like that?
maybe it isn't even a he?
whatever, it's a good image and i'm sure it will do well.

yes, very simple and elegant and other words that mean similar to what I just said.
oh, and you'll probably get a ribbon or top ten placement, it's that good.

excellent tribute.
I don't usually predict ribbon winners simply because I'm not very good at it.
So, I hope I don't jinx this by saying "I think this is going to get a ribbon"!!!!

the only thing I don't like about it is that the shelf appears to be coming out of her head ad I keep getting drawn to it.
But maybe I have a secret fetish of shelves coming out of womans heads and I don't know about it yet?
Hmmm, now there's a thought :-)

I don't know Billy Pegram.
I like the picture.
It just looks a little too softly focused though.

I'm not too keen on the purple tint/cast that you have going on.
i think a simple black and white would have been better.

busy Newyork corner

Comment:
i think this could have been improved if there was some motion blur with the subjects-just to give it that sense of movement or busy-ness(?)
