Andrew,

 

You exhibit a very deft touch in putting this image together. Very nice.

Nice picture. I like the contrast in colors and the way you caught the cat mid-turn.

Thanks, MJ. It looks a lot better (more natural) after applying the noise reduction. Am just starting to scan my negatives and am still getting the hang of it.

Critiques welcome.

Critiques welcome.

I don't know if she would like to be called an old lady, but it's a beautiful picture. I especially like the way the blue-green of the background picks up the same color in her dress.

Inventive in a light-hearted way. I like it.

Thank you, Shenandoah.

I was surprised at how much detail my Fuji E900 captured in the

shadows.

I'm not really a decanter kind of guy, but I always like to take photos of

this one.

Beautiful textures.

That really is an amazing smile (I'm not sure it would even be possible to smile like that and have one's eyes open simultaneously). The little boy's expression provides such a nice contrast to the man's smile, and with the boy in the upper right-hand corner, there is visual interest throughout the entire frame.

Thanks, Rajat.

Thank you, Tommy. I guess I took out a lot of yellow to compensate for the scan of the snapshot, which was way too yellow. Thus the black-and-white (and the retro?) look.

 

Martin

Thank you, Jose. I never thought that someday some of my pictures would be pretty old, but it's happening. Thus the retro feel, I think.

 

Martin

Thanks, Bob.

 

Syed, this print is from a scan of a snapshot. One of these days I'll scan the negative and see if the picture can be cropped to slightly better effect. I'm sure there's a little detail around the edges of the negative that didn't make it into the snapshot (assuming I can locate the negative, that is).
