Richard,
I really enjoyed #3--the cartoon figure and the woman's expression.

I also really like the background in shot #2 but wish the other subject was interesting, but not so much.
It has to be difficult to capture something interesting in that small span as people walk by I imagine.

haha..very cool. I think some edgier processing would help on these though.

I agree.. like the eyes being darker and the rest of the shot washed out or bleach bypass.

#2 dig it

I like the positioning of the person in #3 in that it looks like the cartoon is reaching out to scare her and she's unaware in her mobile.

The bar name of Ojo Negros (black eys) seems ironic when paired with the Budweiser graphic on the awning.

Thanks for the comments, everyone. While I think #3 works fairly well, they all could use something more interesting in the foreground. I just get tired of waiting sometimes. . I don't think edgier processing would rescue them. While I have nothing against edgy processing, I think it works better when you are planning it in advance, not after the fact.

Those eyes.... wow. Just wow.

Thanks. They do get to you, don't they?

Love these! #2 gets my vote too. Might be worth a trip back to wait it out for a more interesting looking subject in front, but none the less, this is cool!
