A friend stands still at in the busy Old Spitalfields Market in London. The aim was to show motion and stationary items in the same shot. I am not particularly happy with the composition, but I feel I owe it to my 'model' to submit...

On the next topic...would a Fender Bender mean "getting drunk by playing your guitar too much"? ;)

I wish I could see the smudged silhouttes a bit better. A candid shot gets a +1 from me. 8

Clever and fun to look at. You could have nearly called it 'Stopped Thoughts' as the lady appears to be lost in thought. Well, guess that wouldn't have been an oxymoron then. :D

Nice tonal range. Well composed. Exposed properly under tricky lighting conditions. Technicals all in place. Well done! Good luck in the challenge.

Looks like she is just taking a break. I think if she was holding the posters and looking at them, the effect of the "stopped motion" would have been stronger. Just my 2 cents.
