| This was my top ranked image and I still find it to contain enough that I would want it on my wall so as to go there at will. |

| Great shot JJ! What were you doing up so early in the morning? Or was it coming home from a late party? |

Very nice I liked this shot.
Maybe a little more detail out of the shadows.
Someday maybe I can do as good as you have :)

| Not keen on the strong starlight efect you have here but a part from that it is a beautiful image. |

| My first thought was that this is too dark, but there is such an air of mystery about it that I'd have to say you got it just right. |

| This has mystery, welcome, heightened awareness, and wonderful texture. The use of light also works well. A very dense and intriguing image. |

| This is the essence of a dark street and a light ahead... I love the textures. |

| Glorious! So much darkness, but so much detail too. The composition leads the eye so nicely up to that light, that is so bright and distinct. 10 |

| I like this one a lot, very nice in black and white. The title suggests the presence of someone in the photo, maybe a silhouette or shadow but there's none. Beautiful nonetheless. 8 |

| Jack the Ripper springs to mind. If I may offer a suggestion, maybe lighten the shadow to a bit more on the gray scale, not enough to take away the mystery but enough to make the audience wonder if a shape is human or not. Just a bit more spookiness. I like this as it is though. |

| This is one of my favorite shots. It so simple. I love the effect of the lone light and the way it brings out the texture in the road. I think this is a great "After Dark" shot. |

| Very nice mood photo. I can imagine Jack the Ripper lurking around the next bend. Did you use a star burst filter to get the flare effect on the street light? |

| Very nice low key shot. I love the reflection of the cobblestone street leading to the door and then your eye moves up to the starred light. High contrast is excellent effect and overall leads to a moody feel. The star effect I think is overdone and maybe one with fewer points would have been more effective for me. I guess this is jj |

| I like the composition, exposure, and the cool effect on the light. Composition is well done, especially with the low light, you did a good job using the street to draw the eye into the light. Exposure is just right. |

| Dark and mysterious. VERY dark and mysterious. NIce use of that curve there, leading to the white light. I also like the texture on the ground. |

| Lovely night shot, with the path forming a leading line towards the main subject. The starry effect of the lamp works for me. |

| This is very well composed. The path leads you into the light. Beautifull b&w photography. The star effect is nice touch to otherwise simple image. Very beautiful. It makes you guess what is in the darkness. Is this in Prague by any chance? |

Technical: fits the challenge. Exposure lighting composition focus all very good.
Personal: This might take a beating by some voters, but I really like it- just enough information to compel the viewer, not enough to know quite what we're looking at. Feels mysterious and moody to me.
My vote: 9

| Like this very much ... with a couple of reservations: the sheer quantity of black to camera right - I appreciate the element of mystery, even of fear that it adds, but I wonder if some gentle illumination of that area might have added depth, especially given the edge lighting to whatever object that is that lead the eye into that area somewhat: I see the faintest impression of a wheel there, but it seems raised above the street. Not sure that information is what you were after conveying. Heaos more intersting tthan most images here though. |

| Well the highest compliment I can give you is that this looks like a beguin shot, fabulous light, texture, mood, composition. Very well done, I expect a high finish for you. (If this is a benguin is this taken on the new 828?) |
