A social commentary that might fit well in an editorial spread. Walking on the fringes of the challenge description though but I'll give you a 6 for stretching our brains a bit. Good luck!

Not sure this would work as a stock photo. But I like it and I like that you used color only on the credit card sign.

great shot, love the way every thing is in sepia and the visa is not

The desat-sepia look is very different. The focus is pretty sharp.

I'm guessing this is at Santa Fe, good idea

Great picture.

Accepted everywhere, right? The spot of bright logo in the middle of a sepia shot doesn't usually work for me. It doesn't here either, I'm afraid, but I do recognize how you needed to draw attention to those logos.

Interesting. Stock does not allow logos - so credit card placard would have to go. Seems a little flat.6

Nice street photography, but doesn't really work for me as a stock image.

Great use of your tone and bringing out the credit logos. A little hard to catch, but as soon as you see them, it becomes SO obvious SO fast what this image is. I keep wanting to see it from a different perspective, but a great shot none the less!!

great shot love the processing every thing black and white except the card sign I have got to learn how to do that.

I understand the selective desat. In fact, I wouldn't have noticed the Visa/MC sign without it. But the comp itself is rather unbalanced. It seems slightly out of focus, and even though the eye is drawn to the Visa/MC sign, I am still not sure where the focal point of the image lies. This is all convention, and I'm sure many people will adore this image more than I do as a matter of taste. I hope this helps.

Santa Fe.... Old Town Albuquerque?

I feel like the composition leads the eye a little astray. Even with the color isolation, there isn't a strong sense of direction and flow.
