Wow, really excellent. The colors, composition, and especially the slight blur are really great. Jason is right, all of the small details on the counter and in the mirror really make this shot exceptional.
Miles I love the inclusion of the barber and customer, the chair takes centre stage and draws you in, and you just in frame, but not obtrusively, love the processing also which emphasises the 40's 50's feel, it just drips with nostalgia, thanks for the link....
I really like this shot, Miles. I've been thinking of doing a barbershop series of empty shops, lit at night. I really like the guy's reflection in the mirror and the fact that you chose to leave it out of focus to focus on the chair. Nice work, as always.

Cool. Especially like the composition and being able to see the barber in the mirror. Also all the photos and stuff on the counters is a nice touch.

Like a piece of passing history. Makes me wonder who the last person was that sat in the chair...A wonderful unfinished tale.
Nice to see you too!

I like the muted color palette; reminds me of the barbershops I was in as a kid.

nice how you kept the chair sharp and the reflections in the mirror a bit blurry

So typical barber mood, very well composed with all these elements and a nice detail of yours ;-)

I like this atmosphere ! Great idea to show us the barber in the mirror. Maybe I make a mistake, but, is that you, in the mirro on the left ?

I love this. Nice angle to the shot, and the colours are beautiful - muted and yet strong enough to tell a story themselves.
