Very nice shot but i must say that the girl draws a lot more attention than the obsolete phone... Maybe a difrent Angle could be a better option next time... Good Luck...

Interesting idea. Just looks a little to forced in the composition to me. Also the picture could use a little more contrast.

Very nice one. The image seems rotated to the right. I tested it and it isn't. The skin tones and the wall are very similar, which takes away some punch. Otherwise very good and clear

Only 2 things I would change (if possible) - the plaque on the wall behind her is distracting the way the shot is composed - maybe she could've been on the left side of the phone or closer to the phone? Also I would darken the whole thing just a bit. Great concept and best of luck!

Nice contrast between the old and the new, it really emphasises the subject of the challenge.
However, more of the left side could have safely been cropped without destroying the symmetry of the image. Just a little bit, mind you.
Keep up the good work.

Its a nice shot, well conceived - however I think it violates the challenge rule "People (alive or dead) are not to be the main subject" I will adjust my vote after further consideration.

I adjusted my vote after hearing your intention. Good luck with challenge.

why do you think the payphone on the left is obsolete? overshadowed maybe, but not obsolete.

my friend friend tried a similar shot, good one

Well payphones are certainly becoming obselete, but I'm not sure they're there yet...
