I had a couple of hours to kill while waiting for my flight and noticed these wonderful windows. And then it occurred to me there was a fill flash challenge.

I leaned up against a wall to my left and stood there taking pic after pic as people walked by. I think I might put together a collage.

Great pic. I find it compelling for some reason. I gave it an 8.

I'd love to see the collage! And it sounds like something I'd do while stuck in an airport, too. Didn't vote this challenge but scanned the thumbs and this one caught my eye and got a full view. I didn't immediately recognize the location, but it looked familiar. Thought that was because it looked like something I'd shoot. :)

hmmm I gave this a 7. Thought you did a good job with highlighting the subject (and that blue coat!) while still keeping the detail in the background. Great timing too. Should have finished higher!

This is really interesting but something about it is bothersome. I've been trying to figure out what it is but cannot figure it out. Sorry I cannot be helpful.

Good use of fill flash, and for me the picture paints a story too, great.

Reminds me of a sketch Billy Connely does where he talks about the BLUE that outdoors people wear, the kind of blue you don't find in nature.

composition and use of the fill flash are good however, I wish your subject was looking at the camera, engaging the viewer more ...
