Ohh I LOVE this! Carnivals for some reason have always made me happy and brought back wonderful memories of growing up. I can almost smell the popcorn and cotton candy. The dramatic black and white is awesome for all those nice white lights. Brilliant to capture that one ride in motion. It brings the photo to life. FanTASTIC work!

Oooooooooh. . .this is awesome! I love the way the shadows on the left provide such a dramatic vignaetting. It has a haunting eerie feel -- like you want to be cozied up inside because a storm is coming. It is beautiful!

Erik! Wow! This is amazing. Did you bag all those birds and turn them loose exactly at the right moment to capture this perfect photo? :) The sheer number of them, placed right over that bridge is so beautiful. The black and white processing adds drama and beauty! Did I say Wow??? Wow!

03 - Pair of Seagulls

This is so good! I love the high contrast and I think all the texture makes this so interesting. It reminds me a little of those old prints where the texture makes its own design and if you stared at it long enough a beautiful shape would pop out 3-dimensionally. It is a very cool composition.

It does in fact look very nostalgic and has a "back in the day" look -- which is perfect for an old drive in. I have such great memories of going to drive-ins when I was a kid and they are so hard to find now. This photo evokes great emotions and memories for me!
