Lovely study of shape and texture, enhanced by black and white treatment.

Nicely done, utterly quirky. Don't like the bluey-green colourcast thats especially evident in their shadows.

Top O' The Mornin' To Ya!

Title weakens impact of overall presentation for me. There seems to be a lot of noise in the red object but I'm assuming that's just it's natural texture coming through. A really strong and abstract composition with nice colour contrast.

Lovely richness of colour and sense of depth to the scene. A feeling of age and tranquility here.

Absolutely wonderful framing, excellent off-centre composition, perfect pose, great silhouette with just a touch of light detail across the torso, very reminiscent of bond but far more funky, works perfectly in this high contrast black and white.

A beautiful detail with wonderful textures, lovely low viewpoint and perfect composition. Presenting this in toned black and white really ensures one's focus on light, shade, texture and shape. There's also a haunting sense of time conveyed by this image and of seasons gone.

This is just FINE. What a marvellous, quirky and utterly wonderful subject matter and the unusual choice of cropping, to exclude the eyes, works unexpectedly well. Black and white perfect to focus attention of textures and details. 10! PS If I were being nitpicky I'd point out the blow out where details in the whitest white areas have been lost - teeth and top right area of frame. But I don't care, I love it anway!

Striking, unusual, almost abstract. Very nice.

Shallow DOF works well to focus attention on the beautiful eye and lashes. Lovely crop - really perfect.
