Spectacularly beautiful model.

Spectacular color separation!

This is a very good scenic photo: well composed, nice sense of depth & atmospheric recession, good color and a good sense of scale. I like it. You have a good "eye" for this type of photography.

This picture is sharper than I might have expected. The blue cast (presumably due to the altitude) could be adjusted in Photoshop. All things considered, a very good picture.

The B+W version has spectacular tonalities.

This is truly a striking photograph and a beautiful dog.

She looks like she might be ready to swipe you across the chops with those thistles.

Excuse me for being so picky, but this is flora, not fauna. It is very beautiful, anyway.

Antonio: why don't you tell us how you REALLY feel?

Interesting juxtaposition.

This beautiful image shows, once again, that film is still supreme. After the constant

hyping of digital cameras and digital photography, it is pleasing to know that film cameras

and old-fashioned photographic film still can deliver the goods. Of course this image had

to be digitized before it could make its appearance here, but that does not detract from

where it had its origins.

Exquisite tonalities. Satisfies a criterion I often apply to a photo of this type: "Does it invite you to be there?"

In ancient Rome, the Romans managed to keep the barbarians outside the gates for quite a few centuries. We obviously have not.

Mike Scarpitti: brutish critic. The picture's OK, should have been downsized before posting. I like the composition and the background bokeh.

I can't imagine that anybody would ever say anything but nice things about a picture of a baby.

Actually Lars, without regard to the technical merits of the photo (which are pretty good) this picture is disgusting. Sorry, I was compelled to make a value judgment in this case.

I am not into ballet. Just the same, it is plain to me that you have a very special vision. Please keep doing this work because I have a feeling that it will have special meaning as a body of work that is not evident from a single frame.

I probably do 70% of my outdoor work in similar lighting. One reason is the lousy weather in the region where I live. Another reason is I do not especially like high-contrast photos. So, I don't think the lighting spoiled this photo. I actually like this photo.

Good bokeh. How else would you expect a Leicaphile to respond?

The most appealing feature of this photo is the wonderful depth that you have achieved. The atmospheric haze helps the mountain to recede into the distance and further enhances the depth. Nice work!

Since I love dogs, I love this picture. I truly believe that dogs have souls - truer and

kinder souls than most human beings. The dog in this photo clearly is a noble being

and that is wonderfully captured.

John: I think you've committed a major boo-boo here. The shot is a decent postcard photo. Why ruin it with defacement?

I'm sure others are going to bitch about the size of this photo, but I think everything about it is spectacular! If I had made it, I would make a fine art print and hang it in a prominent place in my home or office.
