Street view from my new studio. I waited sOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long for the right person to walk in the RIGHT way to get this. I loved the lines,texture of the street and the woman. My hope is just one person likes it. Just one nice comment and I'll feel okay today.

I'm so happy that some of you guys like this image. I love the faves and from so many people I admire too! Thanks so much. I knew the image would not score well- I was just wishing for someone to like it -So I feel like I won. Thanks!

humm! just noticed that all the favs for this image are men. I guess not a female shot. Just interesting.

I had to see for myself what all the excitement was about. :o) This is an excellent photo. The processing is outstanding, as well as the composition. Obviously severely underrated, but clearly appreciated by many, including me.

I'm sorry I skipped this challenge. This would have been an easy 10 from me. It is a tremendous photo.

This is definitley one of those shots that will appeal to a smaller "clientele" but those that it touches will appreciate it even more. You did an excellent job here. This is an image that stands strong. One that doesn't need a score to validate it. Well done!

Holy crap, how did this end up down here? Gotta go with Ollie and declare Posthumous Blue for bleu.

extremely underrated, the best in the challenge by a mile. But you already got 4 favs and 15 comments, that's worth more than a ribbon.

Excellent! Great patterns in the road, the processing leaves a perfect color scheme and the lone subject offers up a great minimal focus to draw the eye. My fave of the challenge so far. 9 for now.

Love the minimalism. Interesting with all that's going on on the pavement. Cool tones.

interesting image, I like the slight blue/green tint (at least in my monitor) on the road, it makes me think of some CD album cover for some reason

I like the patterns on the blacktop, but the rest of the photo seems plain to me.

This is a great photograph. Very unusual and creative. It would have been perfect except for what looks like a reflection in the top right corner. A definite favourite for me.

Love this! perfectly meets the challenge, excellent composition and color processing. i like how you captured the moment just before she crosses the yellow line, the smudgy trails coming from there make me think something will happen the next moment... great work
