I think people may ding me because of the reflections, but I wanted to show that it was Beverly Hills - the blue sky and palm trees in the background. I waited until a "rich" car went by (note the Mercedes).

I also hope people know who Roberto Cavalli is!

I find the refelctions to distracting. The aren't strong enought o be a strong part of the picture, but they aren't weak enough to really see the window display.

I like this. Reflections in windows are often distracting, but this one works with this photo. Good job. - 8.

I don't know if you were trying to catch the reflection off the window, but IMHO I think this would have been a lot better if a polarizer was used.

Search internet for "Polarizing Filters "

Use of a polarizer to reduce the window glare would have worked well here.

Good idea, but the photo is difficult to look at with so much clutter in the photo, plus the reflections. I'm assuming the reflection is meant to be part of the composition. If not, try a polarising filter next time to help out.

Reflection in the window really takes away from this photo. Good idea though.

The reflections are very bothersome. Although it shows a high end clothing store window in what appears to be an affluent neighborhood (the reflection), it all is too busy. Perhaps if the car wasn't there cutting into the maniquins mid section, it would have been better. I give you kudos, though for the creativity.
