hi kev, no doubt that francis' influance i quite strong here; but there is always that characteristic flavor of irony, joke, surprise, or - how to put it nicely? - perverseness/contrariness in your pictures which nobody can copy, kev!
i'd maybe crop a bit on the right side, but overall composition is delightful!

Interesting candid shot, and well handled tricky light. I like the very descriptive title.

You are walking right up my alley with this one, Kev. How can I not love this? The YELLOISH light, contrasted with the cold GREY outside, the lonely woman there, dream-like, it's all there, all the ingredients I crave in my own little stories.
Great stuff, really nice work, thick with feeling. Nice ironic, bittersweet note from you as well, my friend.
Well done!
Francis

Yes, definitely a Francis-look-a-like. If I didn't know your photography, I would use a Dutch saying: "Better stolen well, than badly invented", or something like that. My knowledge of English is again not sufficient enough to explain what I want to say.
I love it, Kev, well seen, and beautiful light you captured. beautiful vertical layers.

Hi Kev.
Perhaps there will be people who thought that is a simple photo. Not only they would be wrong: the most important of this photo is how it can suggest something.
A photo, a simple photo can suggest so things. And we can see it here.
The reflections, the colours, the woman, the room,... there are so many things.
Regards.

Hi Kev, there is something pointedly sinister about this... holding a lock of hair as though in meditation... but then your note puts the smile back at my face. Marvellous visual contrast between the woman and the Caviar ad, simply superb, and the reference to Francis is bang on.
There are many layers to this marvellous shot, Kev.
Bravo.

I thought it was from Francis from the thumbnail. Interstign composition, very nice light and the reflection make us look harder.

Hello Kev,
I like the two elements in this picture, one, the lady with the hair skein, two the reflections in the window of the cars, everything sharp and clear.
Thanks a lot for visit.
John.

Hi Kev, nice playing with natural and artificial light here! Also, the reflections in the window are an important aspect of your picture: they enhance the voyeuristic feeling that you evoke with this picture. Love your note too!

Also enjoy this one, same as the others, composition wise and color wise..
The scene is also very engaging, kind of funny.
