Centered composition works well and the lockers/doors with reflections do a great job framing your subject. This reminds me of how difficult high school and adolescence can be.

Awesome shot... i love how the colours are limited to red/white/black, and the reflection in the floor. Looks like a hospital, but this would also be cool in a school hallway. 8
Bumped up to 10, and added to favourites.

Interesting image with nice creative composition. The reflections work well and make it seem as if the girl is hovering or levitating. 7

Not sure what is it, but you created very appealing composition - colors, lines, reflections - all works very well together.

This shot screams "stock"! Great job on the conceptual theme, "alienation" is another.

Well captured and presented. This probably asks more questions than it answers. I like that.

recommend you darken the tones of the floor reflections more (you may have to do this selectively), Nice abstract. good technique , well executed. You have to experiment with the post processing more. 6

A fave for this. Fluorescent lights are often poor for interesting shots, but you have taken good advantage of them and also conveyed your title well.

The repititions are what really creates the interst in this photo, the color being limited to just three colors furthur drives the interest. I don't know if it was by design or by accident, but the horizontal stripes of the sweatshirt adds a nice bit of graphical whimisy.

The leading lines, light and shadow, the reds whites and blacks, the stripes repeated both horizontally and vertically, the reflection continuing in the floor...all of these combine to a make a great picture. You have a great eye!! This is not a picture that I typically would like, however, you have combined all the elements so well, I love it!! Bumping it to a 10.

Quick, somebody tip that janitor! Them's some seriously nice floors!
Great pic too btw. I 10ve the idea of the vertical lines of the school contrasting with the horizontal lines of the child who appears to be not getting along or running against the grain.
If you look really closely, you will notice that there is a subtle rhythm of horizontal lines along the top which have a 'leading' effect suggesting unrealized motion in that direction, presumably an exit.
Very interesting pic.

Such an emotional image. Love how you chose to shoot them from behind. Gives it more impact. The reflections and red walls really add a lot. Great angle to boot. Well done.

INteresting play with lines here. The reflection really adds to this. The lines in the sweatshirt fit well with the perspectives of the ceiling - and there could be some metaphor here since the figure sort of rebels against the composition but at the same time fits neatly into it. 8
