Propper black as ink tones. The sharpness plays off well against the blotches.

I missed the "Dear Diary" bit the first time I looked through. Just to show how successful the images are, I ended up thinking: snippets of a life. So there you are, you nailed it.

My favourite is the first image, for it's bold composition.

It is so true, one has a broad variety of emotions per day - related and unrelated, and these images reflect it so well.

Thanks.

Probably not enough eye-candy.

I do think it is a reasonably well balanced shot, exactly the one that should be used in the History text books, or Google. It displays the monuments in good colouor and perfect definition, it places them in their right perspective, and there are some nice lines formed by the horison, trees and paving.

The clouds are a bit dull. The cannon is perhaps too close to the left side of the image.

Lots of forward momentum. The different girls did not bother me a bit. I was looking forward to the next image. Its a roughish ride, innocence-lost-repent-grace, as happens to just about all of us.

Repeating the first image at the end gets the circle of life idea across nicely.

Paul and you will have to explain this co-incidence to the Headmaster, I think.

You must be the expert on drive-by shooting, as the images are all beautifully linked in their framing, tone and subject matter.

Thanks.
