Really one of the best of the challenge - on its own right and in emulating John's well seen, well processed work. Nice to see it above 6 but should have been on the first page as well.
I believe this to be Mr Agar's entry. If am wrong, let me know. But this appears to be an original. The image tells the same stories that John wants to tell with his images.
I'm guessing that you are jagar, that you are being self-deprecating in the title, and that in the image you have captured this self-deprecation as a sense of something missing.... snow on a bench, hints of people through windows, people who look down, an unstarted word.
This works so beautifully for this challenge - and just as a photograph in its own right. A nice touch of life - all the humans staying inside where it's warm and cozy. Excellent tones.
