This is just awesome, Joe. I really like how that lone figure is ready to step into the darkness, and it even says "STOP" right there.

Truly a wonderful piece, Joe. Very well seen - great interplay throughout the shot.

Very nice, i like the light and shadows. I love how the word stop is on the payment and the shadow of the stop sign looms off to the side, well seen.

The "feel" here brings back many memories of nights spent running in training for a marathon! :)

Of course, that was about 20 years ago in Tallahassee, FL, and this reminds me of the street corner across from the state capitol at the top of Apalachee Parkway where I would turn right to go home on the last half of a 9.5 or 10 mile route.

I only give you all this info. to underscore what an excellent creation this is...evocative, moody, obviously dark, and in many ways (I would guess) universally experiential. Bottom Line: Great Work! :)

Alot of lines to keep the eye bouncing around.

I like the fact that the image is 100% black and the figure is one step away from entering it. Nicely composed.

Really like the big bold patterns and how in the end the eye is led to the tiny figure at the top.

Oh man, I had no idea about this from the thumbnail. You really understand black and white I think Joe - shoot more of it. Now. :-)

Wonderful capture! I love the fact that the composition draws you to the subject and the she is headed into total darkness...very interesting. I also like the great detail in the pavement providing texture.

I like the shadow of the stop sign along with the word 'stop' written on the street. The person in the distance adds much depth to the photo.
Also, as a fan of high contrast street photography, this is a great example of it.

I like this very much... The "stop" on the road and the shadow of the stop sign seem to warn of something very ominous the woman is about to encounter before being shrouded in darkness...
