Not my best ever for sure - I just liked the way he almost mirrored the picture in the newspaper...

Hmmm - something went wrong in the upload process and I only got half an image... This one should work though

I really like the visual wit you've captured. I keep my eye out for this sort of thing. It's an accomplishment and often a truly great photograph when a photographer can strut across the thin line from triteness into originality. Of course, HCB was the original master at this. This example would be stronger if the visual pun in the newspaper were more prominent than the background. You have some good work. I hope to see a lot more.

Like Tony I really like this picture, but unlike him I like the understated way it references the newspaper image: it makes me search Christel's image, wondering what she is up to this time. It adds interest and I'd be concerned that the image would be trivial if the visual connection was more prominent.

Just my two cents, pennies, øre (hej Christel), whatever.
