I was trying to get this kind of image - it's reminiscent of something I saw from Baghdad, from the World Press Photo 2005 (I think). So: man or woman? What's he/she holding? (The top of a tea-pot, I think). Neither Cappuccino nor Espresso. Mrs. Slightly-large, in the sweater, doesn't seem to be taking so much notice however, so perhaps our subject is actually inclined to obsess about tea-pot lids.

Nice capture. This would also have been a nice shot to do up in a sepia tone. I probably would have cropped a little more of the left side, but then you would lose some of the reflections.
Great street candid, have a hunch who took this photo, perhaps the master himself, JJ? Anyway, whoever took this, love it and the tones in it, got a 10 from me and went to my favorites, great shot.
You captured this moment really well. For a candid, I'd say you should have tried to get a straighter angle through the window to give a better perspective on the women. For this challenge however, the angle works well ibecause it draws attention on the window.
Very nice capture of a "slice of life" moment. This works quite well in B&W. I might have considered tightening the crop a bit on the left so that the couple fills the frame a bit more - this would help maintain your focus on the main subjects.
Remarkable for a "from-the-hip" type candid that you could achieve the level of concentration or focus (in the non-photographic sense) that you have here. This photograph is all about one person, but it's a person in context; a context that every component of the photograph serves. It's as if you took an hour to set it up, and yet it was no doubt just a heartbeat! Admirable, instructive work. 9.
Great candid you've captured here. It really has a lot of character. Detail and focus look spot-on and the b&w works very well. I would have preferred a tighter shot/crop to eleminate the window elements to the left, but that's just me. Nice capture nonetheless... I vote 7
This is wonderful, it would have worked so well for Candid as well. I can't tell what is in his hand but it's compelling and making me want to find out. It's telling me a story, giving me a glimpse into another's life and the framing and coloration used is very well done. A 9
