A play on words. The style of clothing as well as the path that the subject takes across the tracks. I like the stark contrast of the shot as well as the uncertain look on the girls face.

The low angle forces the eye first to the snow, then along the track, up the leg and body, to the face. The look on the subject's face is intriguing. The viewer wonders what she's looking at - a train, perhaps?
My one nit is the highlight you did around the girl's head. It says 'This shot has been edited.' Can you blend it in to the sky do it's not noticable. Or can you redo it, so it just affects the girl's face? It's really no distracting, but I thought I should mention it can be noticed.
This is just a fantastic shot i love it, The look on the girls face the contrast of the white background with her black clothes, the place. Just got underrated. I didn't vote but this one for me was a winner. Seems its going right to my favorites. Great shot once again.
I like the picture for the picture's sake. But were you just hanging around the train tracks, and this girl just happened to walk by? And she didn't know you were taking her picture? I know that sounds like I'm being sarcastic, but I'm really not.
Perfect for this challenge. Mysterious, enigmatic, and disconcerting. Tells a story while maintaining utmost photographic integrity. Excellent tonal range. Focus and exposure, and DOF is excellent. The halo is subtle enough not to be distracting and is effective in drawing the gaze upwards. One of my top picks. 10
I liked just about everything about this photo. The only thing that stood out to me is that it looks somewhat "posed" however since I wasn't there to see the shot taken what do I know :)
This is a very nice shot that just screams rebellion. Mood, black and white rendering, expression, stance, all perfect. I think the only thing I can find to pick on is the stark white sky. Bumping to 10.
I think this shot could do GREAT in some challenges. I bet people wont feel that it was truley candid though. Regardless, it is a nice shot and could easily be a framed piece. Wonderful job.
