Sisters & Friends.....Forever!

This is a beautifully emotive shot. You can see the resemblance in the sisters and the love in the embrace. Nicely done. (Too bad it's basic editing as then you could soften the forehead glare a bit. Darn that bright sun!) Great job on the skin tones, too!

This is just darling. Such a precious little thing. I like the very subtle lighting and that only it's nose and a little bit of the face are in the light. Nice choice on DOF.

This is just beautiful. I love the sharpness of all the details, the textures...great crop also. Monochrome works very well with this. A touch deeper depth of field might have made this almost perfect. (There is a bit of fuzziness on the middle front of the dandelion center (or whatever this is).

Edited for typo!

Candy, anyone?

I'm sorry, but this just cracks me up, lol! Your subtle dof works very well to draw the attention to the pigs face and not the candy. I like the lighting you used. Side light is nice on this. This is advanced editing, so I'm going to bring up your sensor dust spots!!!!! :0 Should have cloned those babies out! :) I think this is a cute and creative shot!

Edited for poor typing...ugh!

I love what you've done with your patio!! :P The colors are great here, but the focus appears just a touch soft. I like the shapes and the movement.

I absolutely love this! The perspective and the crop is amazing. The subdued colors are great in my opinion..no, they are refreshing!!! All the lines and spheres make this very interesting. Well done!

i love the beauty and the abstractness of this shot. If could be imaged as a beautiful bird with it's tail forward, not just as the center of a flower. I love the detail and the colors. Nicely done!

i like this. I might have cropped a bit more off of the top to eliminate some of the top stuff.
