I like how this image is divided into thirds with the man on the left, the reflected people in the middle and the product display on the right. The warm blue/gold tones are very pleasing for this image.

I sense a story here somewhere, but need to see a little more on either side to get an idea what it might be. The reflection of the 2 in the glass is just a tad distracting, but, of course, the timing of these things can't always be controlled. ;-)

I really don't understand what the "Impact"/interest is with the guy?? The right half of this is lovely, with really nice light and reflections.

OK, I've been staring at this for a little while and I'm still not sure what the guy is looking at in the window. Are they purses?

Unfortunately the light reflections between the man and window display keep attracting my eye more than what I think is supposed to be the subject of the image.

I'm actually kind of mesmerized by the five vertical out of focus dots in the middle there.

Nice, I am curious what he is looking at!

Thanks guys... This is in Rome, Italy on the street Via Condotti, a big fashion shopping hot spot there. If I remember correctly this is a storefront window for Gucci and he is looking down at the floor for the prices of the purses that are being displayed.

I like the idea of this one. I wish the whole composition was swung a bit more to the right, and we could get our friend there to take a step closer to the window.

I wonder if he's window shopping. You know what they say, if there's no price on it, that means you can't afford it.
