Barbara... congrats on getting a 6. That is the measure of success for me. Nice sepia. I scored it 7.

Something about this image feels overly posed. The contents of the window behind the bench are distracting, and contribute to the feeling that the "western" theme is only an act, without which the image quickly becomes rather uninteresting. The sunglasses hanging from the woman's collar don't reinforce the old west theme either.

What a great shot! I'm guessing a play or re-enactment of some sort? Now the title would probably fit better if she didn't have that look of utter shock and disgust on her face, LOL! :)

I like the choice of using sepia for this because of the costumes the people are wearing but just a few things botter me with the shot. The sunglasses on her dress, out of character and period, could have been cloned and for some reason the balance seems off. The way the people are sitting when I look to the center of the shot it's the bench and even though you have two people on one side and one on the other the overall shot doesn't feel like an off balance teeter totter, does that make sense? Using my magic envelope, if you had cropped just a little bit more on the left, taking out the wall and poster it seems to balance just a little better overall.

Seems more like staged historical caricature than actual "dream". But beautiful use of sepia quality for historic erea photo.
