Wow, love this. The hair styles say so much about today. This is a great shot to depict what is happening today with teens. It is a classic moment in time capture. You should be very proud of this one.

Out of the Fog Beauty Is Revealed

The Story: I had a hard time with a title, because what I was really going for with the combination could not be conveyed in a title without total confusion. So here is the real title and the story:
Title: Going Home
I was actually talking about the ducks in this case. To the right they are swimming into the pond, and as they swam they went past the web. It was lovely because they were small and very hidden in the fog, but it was lovely. I could not shoot that image because then you would not have seen the web. I chose this combination because I wanted the eye to naturally follow the ducks into the next frame without using an overlap. I believe this was achieved, but you have to be willing to really look into the image. The third panel is the home they are swimming to. That is actually a nesting box for ducks, and this couple live there. So since dp folks don't really spend time viewing an image to really get what its significance is, I used the common theme of fog to connect the images, which is more anal, but that is the way it goes.
Unfortunately it did not do as well as I hoped. I feel that once you read the real story, you will see that this image is truly wonderful. Thanks for those that felt this should have been in at least the front page. Sorry I could not deliver once again.

Think the pp left a bit to be desired. It is a good technique to use, but not for this type of image.

Sorry, don't like the pp on this one. Makes the dog look very strange and unattractive. Should have added a bunch of cards in its paw, with maybe a cigarrette burning and a highball glass. That would have worked better with this style of image.

Nice portrait. The eyes are beautiful. Nice and clear and well focused.

Very newspaper photo feel. The grain bothers me alot. I think less sky may be in order for this shot, or maybe you could compress the sky a little to retain the white area, but a little closer to the dome.

Love the gourds. Wish you had shown more of them. The house to the right is not necessary for this composition.
