   I'd like to think that she is a highly deadly ninja on the way to the office or wherever they hang out in the morning.

   like a silhouette on graph paper
   the picture seems to isolate her from the surrounding world

   I normally love your work Travis; you can do much better than this. This image just isn't very powerful. That said, looking forward to your next one.

   Give Travis a break!
   Does every picture have to be Pulitzer quality. The fact that he is looking and shooting every day for this long deserves a prize. Sometimes the observation can be this simple, can give us two dimensional and graphic gratification. It wouldn't be hard to dig even a little deeper as there could be commentary on the individual in a mass culture, urban life etc etc It's a clever picture and shows that there is a brain behind that camera. I think that the grid both below and behind is great and I agree with the 'graph paper' comment above. Its nice how he processed the figure into an almost pure silhouette reducing her to a pure graphic element. It takes reality into the realm of poetry and so makes for good art.

   I say BRAVO Ruse!
