Something about this, perhaps little details like the hand over the belly, and pose of the lady on the right, give this something of the feel of a Renaissance (or thereabouts) painting.  Very cool.

That spot is one of my favourite places in downtown L.A.  I've had trouble defining what, exactly, about the spot attracts me, though.  I think it has something to with it being the kind of place that one would typically overlook, yet which has a rather lavish sign in it that once surely commanded attention and even brought a life to the strange little spot, a vitality that must have seemed rather incongruous with the dowdier qualities of that tiny nook...

This has a classic tone to it that I've never been able to achieve and envy you for knowing how to get.  Well done.

Love this.  It has a "solidity" and dynamism that I seldom seem to find in action photography these days.  Most excellent.

I like how the background is busy enough to add texture, but soft enough to allow her to "pop."  I also like her pose, and the fact that she's beyond cute. :)

This is so terrifically modern in both style and execution.

I'll just go with my initial impression here, and that is that this is one of the coolest photos I have stumbled across on p-net in many a year.

This has a lovely and timeless quality to it that should easily ensure it pride of place in any family album in the years to come.

I love the colours, as well as the dream like undulations of the blurred and sharp areas. Most excellent.

The background makes the picture for me. This is terrific and atmospheric stuff. 8/7...

Timeless, moody, and atmospheric. I like it quite a lot!

Oh I like this one rather allot! Not just because the model is so beautiful, but also for the colours and the gleam of the chrome, as well as the dreaminess brought about by the distorted reflections of the windscreen. Nicely composed . Well done.

This is wonderful. Any tips on how to achieve such a look would be welcome, as I'd love to be making pictures like this myself.

That is very cool in all ways -- even down to the colour and mood. It makes one wonder if it was also the lenses, and not just the film that made old pictures look as they did! This really does have a romantic glow about it that hearkens back to the era your lens was made in!

Not literally, I hope. I mean, could you imagine? :)

As perfect a gem of a wedding photo as I have ever seen. Everything, from the colours, to the arrangement and expressions of the people in the background just "works." The frame-within-a-frame created by the chrome trim is very nice.

A strange and unusual image! Looks like what might have resulted if Helmut Newton had shot an album cover for Pink Floyd. Very cool.

Excellent tones and composition. It really does look like a piece of swell art photography from the 1930s, or thereabouts.

Crosses for eyes usually implies death, so what we appear to have here is the zombie version of some sort of anthropomorphic poop creature...

 

That could explain why the lunchroom is empty.

 

Oddly enough, this looks like it could be a shot for some kind of catalogue; a very weird catalogue, no doubt.

I really like the mix of forms and colours in this one. The patch of blue, the shadow, and the ball itself, providing a sharp point of energy and contrast in the vast field of green... It is a terrific combination.

What a great idea, and well executed! Of the three, this one is my favourite. The contact of the picture water to the real flame looks thoroughly convincing. This is top-flight stuff.

Nice composition, the wood in the center combines with the rushing water to create the feeling of things exploding, but in a good way.

This is really good and it's pretty "deep" as well. The way in which it is implied that Death gleefully follows any and all (which it does); the way the girl is blurred -- suggesting the swift, ephemeral nature of humankind; a transient nature so well and long-established that it brings great joy to the Reaper, as he knows he will always have fresh prey.

 

I especially like how there could be multiple meanings in the girl's direction of travel and the more chaotic graffiti on the right side of the wall. Is it a representation of her embracing the rough-and-tumble of life, keeping one step ahead of the rigid dullness of Death's kingdom? Or is it a comment on the inevitability of disorder -- of entropy? Does the girl avoid Death's somber banality, even as she glides headlong into the disorder and destruction that will one day carry her into the embrace of her pursuer?

 

 

Steamy and lushly sensual... I felt suddenly warm just looking at the thumbnail pic!

Terrific and funny picture -- I wish I'd taken it! Well done.
