Last weekend, I was riding the bus down Lexington Ave and as the bus approached 68th Street, took a few shots. Many of the local NYC bus windshields are polarized and after having seen my shots decided that I actually like the effect. What do you think ?

Nina, your first image is absolutely brilliant, both are good but the first one really grabs my attention, am not completely sure what the object is on the right hand side of the image but that's a small gripe. You have made great creative use of environment around you and the end result is inspiring. Only question, was the bus moving?

Very clever shot, I like them both. The first is my favorite because it has more objects of interest and holds my attention longer. I like the composition of this photo a lot, but it could be stronger if you could get more seperation between the street light and building. I think the street light adds a lot to the photo and would like to see more detail.
The second photo is much cleaner and the composition still makes for a great photo, but it does not have as much interest as the first one.
Great job and killer idea.
Cheers.

I agree with the first shot being stronger, but both are very good. The polarizer in the windsheild really added a great dynamic and also the very effect happens to be a part of the city, like the bus operators view :) Definetely print and frame. Great images

Nina,
These are really Hmm! Cool! looking for new expressions. I really like these, their so different.
My only minor critique is the top one has a big white blob which is the traffic light and to start with I found very distracting. Perhaps if you could tone down the light a little it would make it less distracting.
I really like both no preference here
