I feel it's a bit dark - but I love the idea and the girl in the pool of light in the middle works really well.

Very effective!
And I think it needs the dark to enhance the mood.

Thank you both for the feedback
 I'll look at it lighter but I  originally chose the darker for the reason stated.

What I particularly like is that the central figure is the only one that appears static.

Right, Keith. Wonder what the shutter speed was. I'd guess somewhere around 1/4 to 1/8 second. It grabbed the girl standing static in the light and caught the movement all around her. A fine shot.

Russ, the lens was Fijinon 10-24 @10mm. The ISO@200,f/8, .5 second. If you're familiar with the station I set the camera on the railing upstairs at the apple store(east end). I had originally set it there to get windows at the far end with the pedestrian movement , then she showed up and made the shot one of my favorites.
