db, the unconventional placement of the somewhat "agonized" face and its significant separation from the background really gets my attention - Definitely eye catching! ... R.J. (Imager)
Gee, and people say you can't get good photographs with a Digital Rebel? I'm not crazy about her expression (looks like she's struggling to keep her eyes open in direct sunlight), but the composition really works well. Good exposure, nice range of tones.

db: Of the three B&Ws, I like this best. The unconventional framing and the complementary background work well. Not clear what the context for her expression is, but the image says to me "Tired of life in the city." I would consider a bit of counter-clockwise rotation, as the blurred cityscape appears to lean a bit, but all-in-all very nice. --Joe
