Simple...beautiful!

Thank you, TImo.

Dreamy light around this silhouetted oak (?) tree. The foreground grasses are bleached and backlit. Lovely capture.

Paul,

The silhouetted branches is chaotic, yet delightful with the autumn colors in the background. Captivating image!

Jane

Phillip, Love this image! Beautiful composition, working with the deep shadows, the branch is sweetly curved and the fronds are backlit. Delightful! 

Jane

Phillip, 

Terrific detail on the face of this green creature! 

Jane

Phillip, 

This is fantastic! Those long legs are so ... long. And that shadow is a very nice visual treat. 

Jane

Luis, Initially, this scene looked simple and serene. But by cropping the sweeper to the lower edge of the long  road, it created a visual tension and implied that she had her work cut out for her. While the composition diminishes the woman, compared to the daunting road ahead, it also illuminates her silhouetted task.  The sweeper's focus on her work is riveting, and holds my focus, leaving the road ahead to the shadows. Powerful use of cropping and composition. Jane

Marv, Was this captured with a 6x7 pinhole? Excellent! Jane

Robv, The long shadow from the lamp draws in my eye. But I can't erase the thought that the broken stucco and "16" sign look like a skull. Intriguing image, and vertical format adds visual strength.  Jane

Edoardo, Thank you for the in-depth history of this place. The image comes alive with its history. Jane

Marv, I'm drawn to this image. Today I'm noticing how the shadowed streetview is balanced by a much smaller window of bright sunlight above -the sunny red wall and blue-bird sky. The combination of many strong geometric shapes is visually interesting. Thank you for posting this. Jane

This is looking up at the downside, very positive 

Marc, Thanks for your "positive" comment. That's probably how I felt behind the viewfinder, topsy-turvy bathed in pink sunlight. Jane

Jane...Choice airstrip shot really enhanced by your inclusion of runway markings sprinkled with that white stuff! Salutations-Laurent

Laurent, Thank you very much. I was lucky enough to have walked through that same jet on a tour, then we were bused out to watch it takeoff. Couldn't believe my luck! Best, Jane

Beautiful low light, and creative depth of field work. 

Love this captivating image. But have no idea how you created it. The image is rich with color and textures. 

Beautiful idea, and skillful editing. This portrait is lovely!  

So imaginative! This is dreamy.

Delightful image.

Beautiful.  You are a creative genius.
