Good lighting. The overcast sky adds a nice touch.

A little dark but I would have liked sitting there.

Nicely composed and the lighting was a challenge in its own right. You did well with what you had to work with.

I like how the angles seem to work there way down and in to the window. Very nice...

Nice lead-in lines from the table direct us through to the well-framed city skyline. It's a shame that the day was not sunny as this would have made the skyline more intersting and probably thrown some needed light into the foreground. (5)

I want to go there! I don't know all of the proper terminology yet, but the way your picture transitions from the darker, more muted interior of the building, without losing any detail, to the brighter, busy outside of the window is amazing!!

Very nicely done. Would have given you another point at least if there were more detail in the face. It's still has a nice feel as is....

Very nice use of the window to really add something to the photograph. Nice exposure and framing, too. I like how the table leads you right to the view.

Idea is nice, but the title suggests you need more light on the foreground

This is very nice...wish it were a tad brighter, but overall effect is nice.

This image is nicely composed and tells a story. Maybe a little dark(bracketing sometimes helps) but still, a pleasant interpretation of the Challenge.
