Greetings from the Critique Club!

When this first came up since it wasn't in the context of voting in a challenge, I thought it was from the Street Photography challenge, and I didn't associate it with furniture. The title made more sense after I realized the challenge topic.

The mural here is great, and it took a second for me to find the cleaner. I like that her shirt sets her apart from the dark tones. I like the unique idea for the challenge, but as another commenter mentioned, the furniture seems a bit small in the grand scale of the shot, though it is definately important. With using such a wide lens, it seems to have distorted the girl a bit which makes it feel to me like she is falling in to the middle of the shot. I wonder if a bit of a correction in photoshop would be possible to help correct that? It's difficult to comment further on that since you left no comments in the photographers notes about your thoughts or processing.

Excellent, reminds me of a similar recent one, I think street challenge, where eyes were watching from a large poster inside a playhouse.

Good shot. I like how her clothes and hair/hat put me in mind of the past time. My preference in this challenge though is to have the furniture piece be the main subject. 6

My favorite photo in the challenge. Highly stylistic, great use of the frame. Wonderful light. Most importantly a "real" world use of furniture. Terrific capture.
