Comment: I like this a lot. Experimentation is good! It's amazing how many people think that such effects could even have been achieved unintentionally.
Comment: Sonja? Very nice idea. I could be wrong but it looks like some burning was doen to the window to draw the eye to the window art. It doesn't look natural for a window to be so grey. The highlight under the arm is a bit harsh as well. The lighting on the face, however, is terrific, couldn't be better, and the expression is of fierce concentration. 8
Comment: Not sure what the title means but that is my opinion when I look at this photo. I keep coming back to it. I find it extraordinarily dynamic and mundane at the same time, both hopeful and annihilistic Thank you for sharing this rare gem. 10
Comment: One of the best of the challenge. Great framing and nice choice for black and white. I get the feeling of a brisk walk when spring has just arrived or maybe you hope it has. :) 10
