Technical: I assume that this was shot through glass as you say it is a window display although I dont see any reflections! The focus is slightly soft and fuzzy, the colourand lighting good.
Composition: As Miss Piggy is the focal point I would have done away with the puppet audience as they are distracting!
I feel this would be better cropped in portrait mode, as it is slightly flattened in the landscape format.
Although this would be good as part of a Christmas article it is not really photo journalism as it would not stand alone with out it's title!
For me although this is a nice shot it does not say Wow!

I think a picture of the full window would have been more effective. If it weren't for the title, no one would know what this is. By showing the entire scene, it would make a lot more sense to this challenge -- like it was supporting a story about Xmas shopping or something. muckpond.

Cute idea - window dressing. Nice composition with good execution. The real people in the chorus line add to it nicely. Nice soft focus works well here. Good job. PTL7

!!!!!!!!! This is amazingly strange. I love it and wasn't expecting it.

There are a lot of puppets in the front. Was it possible to stand back a bit and get some of the crowd better in the frame to give it a more 'theather' like atmosphere? The way the heads at the bottom are now disturbes the pic.

Very cute! I like your idea... would have been nice to have a human in the photo, maybe looking in the window or something.
