After shopping... 64

Ruud,

You always amaze me with your images. An often returning subject is people caring for each other, holding together in whatever a situation. Social photography. I like this preoccupation with this subject. This a tiny masterpiece, well composed, great black and white with beautiful contrast and light. Congratulations

In addition to the previous comments, I particularly like all the lines and textures.  Well done...  Mike

Excellent winter shot!

Ruud, Very impressive and emotional winter shot. Two people (mother and daughter?) helping each other in a cold and desolate landscape. My compliments! Groeten, Marco

A winner, Ruud, in my eyes. Particularly appealing are 1) the holding of hands and 2) the snow flurries evident against the darkness of their winter coat. It does not take away anything from this very good image but I might have moved the camera to the left thus placing the 'couple' at the right side (could work the other way also)  and have the converging tracks lead the eye to the main subject.

I have been guilty when I was so anxious to get the shot in the field and then I get back to the computer and wish that I had done something slightly different.

All the best (6)

Great winter scene, it communicates and even epitomises the severe cold and treacherous icy conditions underfoot!

Compliments!

Now thats a cold picture, but warmed by the hand holding. A beautifully observed shot. Well seen and executed. Best wishes William.
