enchanted indeed. i'm a sucker for small, overgrown spaces like this. beautiful capture of serenity.

excellent composition. i love the stark, hardedged contrast between the surface of the ice and the open water. it does rather vividly capture the border between life and death, though the trail of reflected light leading up the center of the image in the water offers hope. poor goose. =\

In Reflection
by Citadel

Comment:
i like this image, but i think it would be a lot better with a tighter crop, eliminating the top fourth/fifth of the image or so (at least to occlude the truck). the vanishing point in the street makes the shape of the puddles look like a tall building, and then you see the reflection of buildings moving in the opposite direction - a jarring and cool effect i think works better without seeing the street or the white truck parked in the alley.

serious humor points for this one (and the title).

wow, this is fantastic. i love the lighting, the composition. the contrast both in tones and in lines -- the strong vertical lines vs. the gently undulating ripples in the surface of the water. a nine from me.

The Journey Begins

i'm a sucker for high contrast b&w photos. i probably would have given this a different title, however, because the woman with the travel bag is motion blurred and doesn't immediately draw your attention. i found my eyes exploring the sunlight reflections on the sides of the buildings on the opposite side of the street much more so.
