Wow, soooo mean, Johanna. :P (kidding) - these were my thoughts when I first saw the image as well. One thing that may have made a difference is the James Dean photo and the fan - just look like they were pulled out and placed there for the photo. All that aside, the lighting and all the technicals are stunningly perfect! And the processing is spot-on. |

No, Johanna, you didn't!
I think that every comment can show a part of an image - maybe this image can be considered as 'cold' and I'll work hard on this aspect of my photography in the next future :) |

Lots of work - reminds me of a museum scene. Nice scene and I kind of like the funky expression and pose. Congratulations on the HM. |

This is just my opinion but I think this is far and away the best image in this challenge. No disrespect to the ones that finished higher. Nice job. |

nice feel to this but could have done with a little more processing to distress it or grain it up a bit, its a but too crisp and clean but a great scene 8 |

Curious if you used a cigarette behind the cup for the "steam." A very carefully crafted scene, and done quite well. I've a sneaking suspicion I know who's this is... |

Everything works for me but the mans pose (and I'll admit that the composition of the frame is perhaps a touch too busy). I feel it's enough that James Dean is giving us the look. I would be more convinced if your model was reading the papers instead of glancing somewhere in the unknown. |
