 For Berkeley this is a short skirt :)
PP was minimal, Luko USM technique, levels adjustment, slight shadows/highlights adjustment and maybe a selective color adjustment. There are some blown highlights, but what are ya gonna do...
Hoping to beat my 5.3ish score from last time.

Thanks everyone for my top 20 finish. This was my 100th challenge entry. Its been great, I have learned a lot here.

What a great capture! Did you have to wait long to get the perfect skirt to walk under that sign? This so makes me smile!

Great composition - love the bricks wall, the sign, the water hydrant and the girl's fast-walking pose. Oh and the way the red wall is echoed in the red paving edge, the white vest in the white hydrant and the grey skirt in the gray pavement. Nice. The green cup is a perfect little detail.

I like the contrast between what the sign says, and the length of her skirt. :) I also think the simplicity of the composition works well here.

Great composition, too bad the graffiti was painted over, and too bad she isnt wearing a short skirt! Great capture.

Terrific graphics, colors and balance. It has everything. Movement, focus, a story, some words. GREAT JOB - she just needs to hike up her hemline. ;~D

You should have waited for someone wearing a shorter skirt than this one :-)

Too bad her skirt is not short.
