 Post Challenge:

This was a woman at the Crown Center plaza area. She was on that phone for over 20 minutes laughing hysterically but because of the wind (I think) she'd cover her face like so...

This is a good picture but the edges are too dark. Try easing off some but Sandy was right. This should have placed better than 182. Also maybe a dash more color too. Not a lot jsut a tiny little bit.

Charlene, I am shocked!! I would have thought this was a 6+, although the vignette is maybe a bit more pronounced than I would have liked myself, but thats just me. Great capture and wonderful conversion though, I honestly don't understand why it didn't do a lot better...

I love this Charmayne! Can't for the life of me figure out why it is in 182nd place. It is a powerful candid!

Vignette was a nice way to semi-remove the guy in back form the picture.

I've criticised other photos for not showing the subject's face but I think it's entirely appropriate here. You've conveyed a sad (?) moment well

Nice shot and the B&W works well. I like the vignetting (though I bet it wont be to everyones taste) as it very gently draws you to the focal point of the image

Too bad for the guyin the background. He distracts from the emotion of the shot.

Interesting subject but more of the womans face might have been nice and the man is distracting.

I do not like the darkening of the corners....

The vignette encloses the moment, but finishes there...
