 I had so much fun shooting for this challenge. Met my first DPCer ( Melethia), and we rendez-voused at Union Station in downtown LA for a great morning of shooting. I had a very hard time choosing an image, and relied heavily on her keen eye and great taste. THANK YOU Deb!!!54

Nixter is one of my all time favorites on this site. You did a great job with lighting/subject and your b/w processing is right on. The only thing missing is the top and bottom black border. :)

This was one of my favourites Johanna. Glad to see you and Deb did so well. You had awesome shots. One of my favourite locations, a railway station.

very well done in the Nixter style! Way to go Johanna! (barely visible silhouettes on the right add to the dark mystery of this shot)

Great shot - I love how the darkness at the top is broken by the little pinpoints of light. Also quite jealous of your fisheye lens... ;o)

One of my Uber-Nixtery 10s. I really like the lenticular look here with the negative space and below. Perfect exposure for this scene.

Very strong. B/W, use of backlit figure, full tonal range all seem topically appropriate.
