A Life on the Streets

Extremely well captured! Well, just noticed his nose is a little bit out of the focal sweet spot, but great details everywhere else. Some stories I'll bet this guy could tell. Good luck in the challenge.

Same lady from the portrait challenge? She is certainly photogenic. Not sure the title really fits her expression in this one, but great details and clarity. Good luck.

The Paso Man

Comment:
Nice job with the soft focus look, yet keeping him and the horse sharp. Some intrigue/interest to the viewer wondering what the distraction to the left is for 'The Paso Man'. I naturally want to see this cropped some off the left, but with them both looking left it would cramp the photo. This photograph begs to be in portrait mode. I can see the perfect crop from here. :D Good luck in the challenge.

Little Lady

Nice work in eliminating that background and letting the 'Little Lady' shine thru. It's a tad thin on landscape orientation - yes, it fits, but the ratio isn't typical. That's ust a minor nit. This is a photograph that she will treasure years from now, and that should be a large part of having a portrait taken - yes? Overall, nicely done. Good luck in the challenge.

The Fisherman's Son

His eyes just beg to be stared into. As a viewer my mind wanders and puts a story to this young fella. Wonderful job of telling a story, or at least starting one, with this stunning portrait. Bravo!

Some wicked power lines to deal with there - eh? Clouds look pretty cool. Getting ready for the upcoming 'Landscape In Portrait' outtakes? :D

Dan. How did I miss this! Very cool shot. Love the lighting. It's interesting how different people can see such a variety of images in everyday objects. I have one of these sitting on my desk! :D Maybe next time, you know they'll have an Abstract Macro III soon enough. He-he. Take care!

What a great macro shot. Lighting and clarity is outstanding! Well done. I hope you share some of your secrets in the photographer's comments when this challenge has finished and your photo is gracing the front page. :D

Très Chic Meow

She really stands out with that dark background. Her face almost seems to have a grungy look to it. I know she has makeup on, but even her forehead and ears look grunged (is that a word? ). It's not a bad thing, in this case I think it works just fine. The foreground flowers add a nice touch, yet defocused enough to stay out of the visual way. Best of luck to you in the challenge.
