I think this is excellent. I didn't get to view/vote in the challenge but i would have scored this very highly. Wonderful ominous feel to it. Clouds are great and the composition works splendidly.

Wow. No comments during voting.

I like the processing. It gives it a very ominous feeling. What I think may have hurt you is that without the title, I have no idea what I am supposed to be seeing, other than a middle school. I honestly didn't even notice the fence until I read the title.

Gaylord's? Very nicely framed. Great tones. Nice shot.

Back to comment: Is she deep in thought or captivated by something going on outside the window?. Doesn't matter. .. This has a person of interest and great tones. My only quibble in terms of this challenge is that it is more two-dimensional than most of HCB's images, but the reflections in the glass help provide some feeling of depth to the image (BTW: Well done keeping your reflection from being too obvious in the image)

I loved this image and I was one of your 9's.
Disappointed to see it disqualified.
Great image.

Saw you post in the Fridge thread.

This photo may be technically correct (black and white conversion is good) but it's not interesting, its busy and there is no point of focus.

Look at your image and pretend somebody else shot it.

Is this image interesting?
Does it hold your attention?
Is there something in the image that draws you into it?

I like just the hint of the guy on the right, and the way the wording on the window lines up with the table. Unfortunate position of her pinkie finger.
