Hey! How could you be in our neck of the woods and not say hello? That would have been fun. Wendy ( vawendy), Mary ( MaryO), Daniel ( The Eskimo), and I, are all within a reasonable distance from this site. Which reminds me, how come I haven't been there in years? :-) Need to go back. Did you see George Washington's signature?

A little like a Waldo challenge ... find the photographer! :-) I see you (at least I think it's you).

Point of Intersection

New PB?! That's awesome. Congrats! I had this picked for Blue myself. Great capture. The timing, the color, the in-your-face intersecting lines. Sweet.

I liked the view overall. Seems to be lacking some 'oomph' (appears a bit flat). A little post work on this would have kicked it up higher in the results I think. Still ... Top 5. :-) Congrats.

This was one of my favorites in this challenge. Unique and well processed. I wonder how it would have done if the concentration (main subject) was only the lower part (just below the tangled 'something' in the upper third)? Would have had that stem on the left by itself then, but that could be removed. Anyway, nice find and well presented.

A View Of The Past Brought Into The Present

I like the lines in this ... the wall sending me into the background building. Pleasing comp overall. My immediate thought when this loaded was it felt slightly tilted to the right. The foreground building is level (vertical line on wall is straight) but the rear building appears canted.

In general here, puffy clouds and blue skies, don't rise to the top very often. This scene does beg for some harsher, more creative processing applied I think.

Very nice location - hope you can visit this a few more times and get some different angles / perspectives / lighting scenarios, etc.

I've enjoyed much of your work and find it overall refreshing and a throwback to what 'art' in photography is or can be. However, that said, this one didn't speak to me at all in that way. I think I enjoy (need) something that is recognizable in the presentation to tell the story better. Didn't feel a story or connection with this one at all.

Now I get the title. Sorry about losing your good friend. Hard to tell from the photo, but he doesn't appear to be elderly or out of shape.

As for the photo, B&W was a good choice. I also like the line on the road as a 'leading line' so to speak. Do think that maybe a bit off the top, and a small crop to the left, would have created a little better dynamic with the comp. Putting him off-center and allowing the curve of the road and line to play a little stronger.

Those guys are great. Saw them at a local county fair this summer. :-)
