Very nice. I think I'd like this better if it were either more clear (hair details, etc.) or less clear (Lens-Baby effects).

Silently Floating

Well this is different! I've stared at it a while to see if it evokes a feeling of peace in me. Eventually it did. I like it very much.

Very nice--this works for me.

Delicate Webs of Peace
by Tajhad

Comment:
I like the idea very much--peace is often delicate and fragile. I'm not sure about the green object on the left. It draws my attention away from the other objects in the image. For me, the image would be stronger if you cropped out the left third of the image.

And spring is coming soon. I like this image. I can imagine myself walking quietly down this path enjoying the peace and tranquility.

Best of the Buddha images I've seen.

Relax
by Myndarpiltur

Comment:
Cough, Cough.....

This really doesn't look to me like the kind of person who can sit back and relax with a good cigar (and maybe a glass of port). This looks like a kid who is trying a cigar for the first time--and experimenting with ways of blowing the smoke.

Nice. Centered compositions are usually too static for me but this is fine for a challenge with this theme.

Where I Find Peace
by madrush

Comment:
I'm sure you find peace here but what about the neighbors who have to listen to you practice? ;-) I'll accept that this represents peace to you but it is not what I think of when I see this image.

I like the bold, graphic quality of the image. It might be improved by moving further from the wall so the shadow would not be visible. Darker pants would also keep them from being blown out.
