Indeed !

of course most of the credit goes to the one who "built" the scene. I found it in Stutgart's biggest toy shop, but nobody was interested in it, the kids all crowded around the playstations....

nice talking of clouds and trees and a good frame!

Great title! War paint! I'm with the guy at the right...

The seldom case that some tourists enhance a picture. It's almost touching how the tiny creatures take bold strides into the big, big world.

Verry prretty!

You can always catch me with your flower photography! Lovely being, crystal clear execution.

It's a Paula's world -

great find! Reality is more inventuous than ourselves, if we are able to see...

You're really following your cows all day long! I've never been taught that rule, but of course it's the next thing one ponders about. I agree, no way to cut it, would change the whole secure feeling of the scenario.

Sweet! The left one is so good, it could stand alone.

what a wonderful shiny floor! Beautiful shades of white! Who cares about the pictures on the wall...?

it is. Not because of technical flaws but because of the situation. Gives it a tiny, nice surrealistic touch!

poetic, and thanks for the broken one.

Comments welcome -

Love the lizard...successfull emotional picture, without being sentimental!

Sorry, Doug, for being late, I always am. 'Highway meditations' is fine, you just might attract a bunch of esoterics, but well...

It's rare that I appreciate pictures as a series, most of the times it's just not-so-good photographs which look pretty when looking at a whole bunch of them. Just like in a clothes shop, when one sees five blue shirts and 12 light-blue trousers hanging beside each other. When one looks at a single piece, it's nothing special, mediocre stuff. This series is different, it does transport exactly that feeling you described, it's very well done, even technically. I do especially like the swing-swaying of different blur-directions.

so these birds see something, although sitting at the 'end' - comforting! What does the sign say originally? Weekend? Blend? Friend? ...

I bet you never imagined landing a POW with this picture. Of course it's the perfect self-portrait, you show what you want us to see, no more, no less, success. It's ridiculous to point out any technical detaility or to give you a tip to look at someone else's portrait work. I enjoyed the discussion.

BTW, how about getting operated? As far as I understand your problem, it could be handled with a small intervention...

Funny, it looks like the cow living in freedom, on a wide green with a blue sky above, the fence being something the viewer can grind his teeth in. We also have lots of cows here (black-forest-type), so I'm eager to see what you are going to do with your cows...

ok, my vote for the bw, for it's poetic quality for such an all-time-classic.
