I like how the hand mimics in this image and the patterns garments of the pedestrians to the reflection in the glass, well done Jack, very well done .

I think the star of the show is the lady in stripes and her co-star is the striping on the road. Her hand gesture is as powerful in its own way as the hand of mannequin which seems almost to her arrest her in the photo. The fabulous brassiered eyelash lady mannequin is like a surreal implant. The mirroring over on the right side gets my eye darting back and forth which makes that woman with the striped blouse in the center even more hard to miss, and she seems to know exactly what's going on. When you publish a book, I'd love to help lay it out and it strikes me that this photo would be one of the more fun ones to figure out which of your other photos to pair it with. 

She is very pretty, but she has some serious competition.

Street photography alchemy.  A wonderful amalgam of reflections, parallel lines, gestures, mannequins, and humanity.  Love the repeating gesture of the hand at left and far right.  Great work, Jack.  Great eye to capture it like this.

splendid one. tricky too. central figure and her reflection "outside". hand as a hero. saying stop and yet inviting us to the picture. horizontal lines guiding us within.

No wonder so many comments differ from each other, as you photography has many meanings, but unfathomable to know what made you press the shutter. The mirrored hand pulled my attention so much that only after a while of looking at it did the street and the pedestrians appeared. You are probably smiling at your photographic mischievousness…and a well deserved smile. Congrats, as always.
