I love that the arches are at the same height. And then the doors below them each serve different purposes. i love the variety of textures in this photo.

This is fun as there is so much to look at here. I have to admit about how unobservant I am - I did not notice the car at first lol.

This is the one I was referring to when I said in color on the black and white pic. I did not realize you put the other color tones in here!

I love the candid pose - it's just adorable! I agree with the comment about ivory being a little too over-exposed - but what ya gonna do with natural lighting? :) I know this is a B&W challenge but I took a peek at the one in color and I have to say that it looks pretty darn good.

The detail in ths snow is awesome and I love how you used lines and diagonals to fill in the picture. You will see from my photos tho that I like heavier contrasts and I wonder how it would look with a little more contrast? For a photo, my preference is to see the shadows stand out from the background a little more.

For some reason I am not skilled enough to take photos like this. I always lean towards wanting sharp pictures. What I like about this is that the toning and softness lends to the eerie mood. The lines and patterns also capture your attention.

This is beautiful. I love that in the conversion you kept the highlights from the lipgloss - that still looks so natural. And what did you do to her eyes in the post processing? They just pop out of the picture and look so real.

Grrr - I typed something and then it did not post. Too quick to push buttons I think. Anyway, I am glad that I will get to see pics from Germany now! Looking forward to it.

What I love about your work is how you are able to take something very simple and turn it into a beautiful piece of art. I love the curve leading into the photo. And the contrast and detail on the feathers is awesome!

This reminds me of the one in Cincinnati. I like how you included the suspension arcing up in the background. Like others have said, I like how the haze adds to the mood of the photo.

I got that this was a kaleidoscope during the challenge and thought it was such a creative idea. But I never saw the ducks! So cute!
