far OUT .. !!! .. what an amazing scene .. as it was loading i was preparing to give you a 6 .. thats a mediocre score from me .. then the penguins came into view .. totally changed this .. incredible .. i'm wondering if there are adults and babies there .. the grey and white ones and the brown ones .. i love penguins .. they have such an interesting look .. there's something almost human to them sometimes ..

simple and beautiful .. i've never shot the sky ... i can imagine it wouldnt be easy to get such detail .. and the stars like little sharp points of light .. this is excellent .. :)

oh WOW .. what an amazing scene .. i'll be giving you high marks for being in such an apparently inhospitable environment .. i've heard cameras can freeze up .. the icicles on the tree are wonderful .. this is actually quite beautiful ..

lovely 'still life' .. i really like the shadows and the black and white .. this makes me want to go visit that room and see what goes on there .. it has a mysterious feel .. with the lighting etc ..

those who wander

brilliant catch .. you must be almost psychic .. being at the right place at the right time .. as the bird flying past is magic ..
and i'm loving your title .. it applies not only to the boatmen but the bird as well .. great bnw edit .. this feels like it was taken by a film camera .. has an old feel to it ..

Two Ladders

this is dark and mysterious .. and a bit like a horror story .. even without the title .. looks like a lot of stuff goes on here .. nefarious is the word that comes to mind .. of course i'm loving the black and white and the barren dilapidated feel .. this is unusual .. !! .. :)

this is an awesomne silhouette .. there must be something really exceptional the photographer is shooting as that sun behind him in the distance is magic ..
stunning colours .. brilliant actually ..
