I like the color palette... very sinister.

All I can say is wow! Talk about gesture!
I guess that's more than wow :P

This photo shows part of a story folding or unfolding. Very nice. I love the look: high ISO noise, color, mood, the young women...

... I love the look: high ISO noise...

Speaking of which... looks like it's been removed, perhaps a bit too much. It would add to the mood.

I didn't changed the regular noise presets but added some soft grain. Here you have a variant with harsh grain:

Are you a regular peeping Tom? If so keep it up. You captured a fine image and both renderings are likeable.

Love it. Something about the guy's right hand that really makes an impact on me.

First impression I got (and I like it, btw) was that the guy's hand was so lit up it looked like the white gloves that a Vaudevillian villain would were, thus giving it, as Slobodan noted, a sinister look.

Guy? They're both female, surely.

Intriguing shot. I think I prefer the second version, but there's little in it.

I like the first one better. It's got enough atmosphere. No need to exaggerate it.
