Sitting on the Path

I think you should take shots of Mandy sitting everywhere..a devilish grin, inviting the viewer to wonder what is going to happen next...Mandy sitting on the street, Mandy sitting in front of an upscale restaurant...
this is only the beginning...
over to you posthumous...

Can one ever choose where the heart leads us?

you know I have to tell you something about when I saw this in the challenge..I looked at it, and thought now here is one hell of a shot, by someone who is more interested in capturing a beautiful moment than in the score..you could just whip right by it..but if you stop and look, then it starts on you...and you realize that you are seeing real Zen..this shot has breath...
figures it was you...work on your scores...:)(do I have to put these smiley faces? I just don't want to offend..well in print anyway...:))

The Captain and his Flying Machine

I never saw this one...and really the thumbnail doesn't do it justice...
nor does a quick first impression...and I am a bit surprised this scored this high...and NOT because it isn't wonderful(confused yet?) because it is...it is low key...the real drama is in the bottom of the shot...the lighting makes the whole shot feel like a dangerous adventure, mised with excitement...it makes me want to go ballooning...and I love that you didn't get to clone out that other balloon, because that makes the adventure bigger...
