All thoughts & suggestions welcome. Thanks for your time.

Farshad 'dear', I see you have cut and pasted exactly the same comment on literally one thousand plus photos in a short space of time. It means nothing, and is spam. Oh, your account has been deleted? Good.

Drew (dear) well said on Farshad he is getting a real pain, he as done more Pasting than a Paper hanger.

Hey Drew. I have checked out your folio and website. it is a small collection to base an observation such as this...I want you to know i see real promise of an emerging talent. being familiar with most styless i am intriqued by a quality in your site selection that scratches at something unfamiliar. it is refreshing to see someones style as it develops. That said i noticed this photo almost has IT? I think where it missed for me is in it's lack of focus in such a way as to simply look out of focus. I like and I use lack of focus often. but here it ditracts from the content.

if it were sharper or even less so it would feel more supportive of the image. maybe the framed art sharper maybe just the rail, the face?....? as you see it. I hope to see more of your work soon. take care, josh

Josh, thanks very much for your generous encouragement. You're spot on about the lack of focus here. I think I just bunged it up here anyway to add to the feel of the series - not a good excuse really ;-) - and I value honest criticism like this very much. I like your description of me 'scratching at the unfamiliar' That really is how I feel. I think I have an awful lot of scratching to do before I get anywhere but its fun. Even more so with feedback like yours. Cheers!

very good shot

I am atracted to this image because I find mistery in it! Josh made me courius and I went back to look at your collection carefully. I was not attracted to it initially because your lack of humans. However, I know I am attracted to exotic intriguing compositions. Your collection resonates with me. Warm regards.
