I LOVE this!...This image is just screaming with emotion! What a perfect capture of childhood rage. The way that you processed this with the lower body blurred and the red tones throughout brilliantly enhance the sense of fury that he was feeling. I'm adding this to my favorites because it's always nice to know that I'm not the only one who occasionally gets this treatment. By the way, did he go ballistic when he saw that you had the nerve to photograph him during his righteous tantrum? Mine do...but then sometimes the shot is so worth it! ;)

Love the inwardly focused gaze that you captured, Gunnar. I think that the grain works well here to enhance the dreamy quality. Gotta love that hair too!!!

There's a satisfying tension in this image in that it evokes feelings of both calmness and turbulence. Lovely tones as well.

Creepy! The tones on this are just right and I really like how you composed the image using the leading lines of the gravestones. Great title too!

This is just superb. The black and white tones are exceptional and raise this image to the level of art. Being able to do this is what I aspire to.
