This is a great shot, fantastic blue tones. A couple of big problems with this shot...

1) Photographers reflection is always difficult to eradicate but can really detract from the shot.
2) The seatbelt is reflecting a lot of light from outside and is a somewhat distracting element in this shot.

Apart from that, I love the idea (although there was an entry very similar to this in a recent challenge). Nice Iron Maiden t-shirt ;)

An excellent, haunting, emotional image and one of the best of the challenge. Makes the viewer wonder why she is going away since clearly she seems conflicted about it. The only thing hurting it is the shadow reflection on the left side, the reflection of the car. The metal seatbelt near her fingertip is distracting. Super facial capture. Kudos to you for a great shot.

One of my absolute favs...beautiful tonality...wonderful depth...so luminous and soft...very touching.

Very nice picture, looks more like someone stuck somewhere than someone who wants to die. May be I didn't get the challenge but for me a suicide is not a decision...

nice photo.....emotional and dark in a way.....I like the blank type of facial expression....it has rained here for days, and days like that remind me of this photo...

My fav pic of the challenge

Beautifully captured, I love the black fading bottom.

The best photo of the challenge. better take the blue. shame it wasn't advanced editing. I'd definetely get rid of the bright seat belt buckle and not sure how i feel about the photographers reflection, it might be good...either way, this photo is still fantastic.

Nice

such a beautiful photo.

This is my favorite of all the photos (80% or so, IMO) of which I have trouble making the connection to the Challenge topic. With a obvious connection to the theme, it would be an easy 10 instead of the 8 I actually scored for it. It easily made my favorites list though.
06/03/2005 04:16:14 PM
This gets my vote for Blue ribbon - excellent idea
06/03/2005 08:10:01 AM
Would be better without the photographers reflection
06/02/2005 10:14:57 PM
Reminiscent of Bye Daddy by Blanceric..and i love that shot. Wish i didn't see the reflection of you in this shot, otherwise very nice.
06/02/2005 05:11:40 PM
I don't feel that the image conveys instantly recognizable decision. Great pic, good try.
06/02/2005 05:22:47 AM
cool shot 10
06/01/2005 07:30:54 PM
great shot, would be better if you cropped your reflection out
06/01/2005 05:19:07 PM
Yes. Was this a decision? I like the idea. The message is clear to the viewer.
06/01/2005 03:18:00 PM
This is very emotive, and done well. The black and white really fits the mood of this.
06/01/2005 02:42:10 PM
Beautiful shot... I love the raindrops and her expression is perfect. I do wish that the reflection had been of someone other than the photographer though... IMHO that detracts from the mood of the scene. Still I gave it an 8. (Would have been a 10 if wasn't the photographer's reflection.)
06/01/2005 01:37:48 PM
Without your reflection in the window, this picture would have been very good.
06/01/2005 01:37:07 PM
Very Captivating.
