This is interesting. At first glance, you think there is something intimate going on here. Then you see that he's not really all that engaged. How do you get shots like these? Fascinating.

He looks so good, Matt. Wow does he have some beautiful eyelashes. And that smiling thru his eyes - awesome.

oh wow Deb this is awesome. Such an inspirational type of scene. I love your colortone. The way the light falls on the boys face is beautiful. Congrats on the top 20!

This is gorgeous! What an amazing view. A friend of mine has family origins in Macedonia and his shots have focused more on city life and people. So I don't think I've seen scenes of nature like this. Very beautiful.

Derek - now this is really really cool. I'm glad to see you got some love in the comments. The view of the landscape to the right is soooo intriguing. Makes me want to sit and wait for something that might stroll past the window. Because of the view from that window, I'd like to have seen less of the wall on the left. Maybe put that corner on the 1/3 line? I look forward to seeing more of what you get from this area!

oh no! no comments - what a shame! I think this is actually an interesting idea - a total black and white conversion plus a slight boost in contrast would have added to the mood of the scene.

Well I'm glad it finished higher than your predicted score. I really liked the simplicity of this. Those flowers are beautiful!
