i have only seen the thumbs so far but this one i just had to open .. !! ..
and i love it .. :)
i believe .. and its substantiated by research .. that soft drink is poison to our bodies .. as is sugar .. and to advertise it is just wrong ..
like hey .. have something that will really hurt you .. but make it look so good and appetizing .. and sound even better .. with all the words that pull ppl in ..
so this really appeals to me .. an anti advert .. good one .. and great you didnt go with the crowd .. :)..

A look back in time

OH WOW .. !!!!!!! ....
there are so many wonderful and very different images i've come across while voting in this challenge .. and this one is up there .. with the 'best' .. inverted commas because 'best' is only a personal opinion ..
the sky is AMAZING .. your bnw edit is beautiful .. the composition is perfect .. the scene is enchanting ..
but they are all the reactions i've had on a mental level .. on a deeper level .. this just grabs me .. it created a heart flutter when i saw it ..
impressive to get a reaction like that in a scene i've gotta say .. :)

oh my .. !!!!! .. in my FACE .. !!!! . ;)
and WONDERFUL .. !!
loving this so much .. the colours are just stunning .. the flowers are almost 3D .. i'm not a flower person as such .. but seeing this .. makes me realize missing by not appreciating their beauty as much as i should .. this is just gorgeous . :)

oh yeah .. !!! .. coming on this amongst all the detailed and clear images .. not that there is anything wrong with that .. was refreshing ..
this is a standout and impactful image .. it speaks to that place in a person that we are often disconnected from .. the deeper places ..
this is subtle but striking all at the same time ..
the posture could be taken whichever way a person chose to see it .. either with a wonderful sense of release and joy .. or something entirely the opposite .. brilliant .. :)

this is wonderful .. riding a horse in the water is a feeling you would never forget .. especially when they swim .. riding at the beach must be amazing ..
it strikes me that this was a very lucky capture .. i would never be able to set a shot like this up .. i dont have the contacts for starters .. whatever ...
its neither here nor there how this came about .. its such a feel good image .. :)
