You Can Never Hold Back Spring

Handsome tonal poem. I like the utter white and black wedges jutting in from the sides and the highly detailed sky and rutted, puddled road from above and below. It's pleasingly asymmetrical.

Wonderful picture. The figures are half hidden yet casting magnificent shadows on a beautifully lit and textured ground. A lot of joy here.

A terrific take on JJ's style -- great lines and perspective and a casually, adroitly observed figure who's idiosyncratic and just out of reach.

In addition to the beautifully captured turkey (?) running across the road, and the do not cross lines, let me note, this image is all about atmosphere. One could say it's dreary, but I'd prefer to see it as nature all embracing. It's touching, mysterious and curiously balanced in composition and tone. If JJ found himself in this setting, this would be a shot he'd take. My personal second favorite in this challenge.

This image exemplifies, to me, many of JJ's personal artistic interests. To wit, line, texture and people glancingly observed, all caught at a moment of harmonious composition. There is also that quirky, tongue-in-cheek sensibility. This is so beautifully done. My personal favorite in this challenge.

Looks like a 3-dimensional maze. Interesting.

A View Worth Dying For

Nice scenery, but unfortunately the majority of the tree is lost in its background, so it doesn't quite function as a foreground anchor.

Nicely twisted into an Escher-like image.
