A very evocative image. A parked car in this enclosed space seems to me like a portrait. It makes the car, that we seldom notice, seem animate, almost heroic. My associations, of course. Thanks for the memorable image.

Simply beautiful!

I like the way you have caught the rundown shop and the up to the minute enemy.

I like the way the image moves me back and forth between recognizing the subject and enjoying the pattern.

Taking it head on and straight ahead you have really captured the Edsel's grandeur or should I say grandiosity. Memorable picture.

A beautiful shot. The clear focus on the feathers is wonderful. What I especially enjoy is the, what should I say, coy, curious look. This bird has real personality

What I like about this picture is that it takes a winter scene that I might take for granted and not 'see' and draws me in to look. I think that the focus on the trees with the drops on the window being blurred as well as the sepia [?] like color contribute to this. Certainly something for me to emulate

I like the way you have caught this man's physical exertion. An appreciation of the working man's body.

very funny!

Thank you Lee

Wonderful color palate, beautifully composed. The stop sign hits me in the eye and then I look down the shadow line to the man. It evokes feelings about life beyond the frame of the picture. For me a keeper.

I like the way you capture the contrast between his meditative state, as you describe, and the hustle and bustle of the others, more clearly contrasted because it is in the cross walk.

I like this image a lot. It presents something that I know well and usually just glance at, and conveys the majesty of the structure. The angle of the shot, the jangle of the reflection and the absence of color all contribute to making this a stunning image.

Thanks Marie. I was walking my bike to put air in its tires…

The eyes are the window to the soul, they say. My eye was caught by this man's eye. That and his life-worn expression invite my compassion. This is a wonderful picture. I'm curious as to how you managed to capture such an intimate view.

I agree that leaving the arm in is a good idea. It works with the fact that the bicycle is leaving the frame and the rider almost popping out from the 'screen.' It does have a cinematic quality that I don't see very often. Thanks

I enjoyed this picture. These guys are such great subjects and you got him in a way that suggests a lot about what kind of guy he is. I thought you might enjoy one of my pictures of this guy's 'brother' at:

Very evocative. It draws me in and leaves imagining the figures. As a Saul Leiter fan I was especially taken by the red umbrella on the edge of a classic b/w composition.
