 Photographer’s Notes
I was walking around Hong Kong looking for “store window” transparency ideas and came across this tailor shop. I liked the semi-transparent, semi-reflective image.

I like the reflections in the glass as well. I find that the stray face in the top left draws attention away from the window-dresser.

Hmm, I hate to use the word, but this looks too much like a "snapshot".

Good store shot. For me, I wish the lighting wasn't quite as yellowish, but again, well done.

This is cool, I would have liked to see it in b/w. And the correct crop is very difficult here.

Good show of transparency through the counter but the whole scene is a bit busy and distracting

Clean windows!!! I see the transparency.. but the scene is uninspiring to me.. very urban typical mall which for me doesnt do alot (thats my own bias).. for others tho it might be magical.. i'm only one opinion.. I like the picture itself tho, the angle is interesting.
