I love that look. Reminds me of my niece who is 15. Like this a lot in B&W with the extra contrast (I'm assuming that's what it is.) Good stuff.

I submitted a shot in Humor just for you.

Gail.. that is a full frame of the hindparts of a Pygmy Hippo.

Glad y'all like it. :) Bugger wouldn't turn around so I started snapping shots anyway.

Sometimes good things... but sometimes hospital trips come out of boredom. :)

I love the concept here. Please sign me up. Sounds like fun.

Karen

I find it amazing that two people can take photographs of the same thing and come out with such drastically different shots. I guess mine is a bit more abstract, where yours is obviously a functional staircase, albeit a gorgeous one. :)

Karen

Actually... the picture is huge, I think you could crop this tighter without too much noise. It took me a bit to find the turtle, but that's only because the shot is so big. It would really help this shot if it were cropped tighter to give the photo an obvious subject. Love it though, nice timing too. He's cute!

Nothing special, just me. I was bored and started taking random

shots, this was the best one.

I really like what you've done with this shot. I've seen many shots of waterfalls, but I love this one. Quite original.

Karen

This made me laugh when I saw it. Awesome photograph.

Karen

This is one of those places that you could take 100 photos of and still find new things to focus on. I really like what you've done with it, I've seen many shots from a similar perspective but this is the only one I've seen that captures motion. Love it.

Same staircase, different perspective. Made myself a little dizzy taking that.

Karen

Agreed. I'm not as creative with flowers as I am with other things. I like the softness in this shot though, but I'm still learning how to take good floral shots.

Thanks for stopping by.. check out some of my other stuff.. more creative. :)

Karen

I really appreciate your kind comments. It's good to know there are people here who will appreciate my quirky sense of humor.

Your dogs are beautiful, btw. I'm jealous.

Karen

This is awesome. Technically, it's just very well done. Perfect.

I can't see it as a flower though, I can only see the face. It really looks like something you'd see in an animated disney movie. Very very very cool.

Karen

I'm really bothered by this one. I feel like the idea was cool but the execution wasn't so great. In my own defense it was really dark inside the cathedral and it was hard to stay still for the extended shutter times.
