Nathan - I do like the B&W version of the mannequins better.  It 
abstracts the image to its advantage, I think.  Of the latest group, 
the man walking his dog does the most for me.

A general comment.  Lately I find myself wanting to crop your 
postings, feeling that the real image is often located somewhere 
inside what you're showing.  I don't remember wanting to do this with 
your earlier posts.  Are you deliberately shooting looser than you 
used to?  Or am I just missing what you're trying to do.  :-)
