Great subject, great layout. I'd be curious to know what this looked like without the levels pushed. I'd think it would look better. The sharpness of contrast I think detracts.

I like George. I like the sign. I like the composition. It doesn't seem forced. A larger aperature might have been interesting. 8

her expression looks very nice...and I think the way the sign is at the corner is just right... the whole background blends in with her very well.

Nice clear picture. I like the use of the black and white scheme. It is very well planned out and displays the concept well. Good job.

Pretty good now that I look at longer.

Nice composition. I find the contrast a little high, though.

I like the high contrast and grainy journalistic feel to this; it seems very appropriate. George looks like he's acting. I suspect that this is a friend dressed for the occasion? The composition is also nice with the fence at down right.

Certainly does a great job of capturing the mood of dispair! Seems like the contrast may be just a little exaggerated, but otherwise it's just great.

Nice B&W but appears too brite or over sharpened. Good shot though. Like the background and surroundings. Nice composition.
