I gave your photo a 2, and I will explain why. If this is supposed to mean that drinker and smoker meet at lunch, then it should have flowed that way. Him, her, then both. You have both in the middle. I also don't like the the theme of drinking or smoking, and the partial b/w with color really doesn't do anything to enhance what I find to be a bit blah. The concept was nice, but the interpretation you gave of it is was not appealing to me. Also, technically, in the second photo, the girl seems to be too bright and the man too dark. He nearly blends in with the background. Sorry, but I thought I should explain low votes. I usually give comment on my top lows and top highs only.
OK I can see a story in the making, but the order of panes seems to be odd, at least for any story I can read easily into this. the skintones don't match between frames.
interesting take on this. good luck
More like "Smoke Break"! This is cool. Definitely different. This is a photo you can look at for much longer than many of the predictable, seen-it-a-million-times photos that you see. The score of this image will be much lower than it deserves, I'm afraid. I hope I'm wrong...
I normally don't care for selective desaturation, but here it clearly contributes to the story. The entries I've seen so far are for the most part very good images, but this is one of the few I've seen that requires a triptych to tell its story - so it's the most fitting for the challenge in that sense.
I hate to say it, but I don't like the selective desaturation here. I do like the concept, each photo, and putting the individual people opposite of where they are in the middle.
