As of now, 2 fav's for this one. Every pixel is just as it should be in this one. Your imagery has advanced rapidly in quality and your camera eye is sharpening daily as well. There is a big difference in your photos this time last year, and now. Great image.

Day 17: The Temple
by Valdo

Comment:
This is a very classy shot for a night image. I can see by the people walking that the exposure was not very long. The logo on the canopy makes an excellent focal point for the image, and the little bits of color are just right.
Funny to turn a "Loo" into a pub.

Lace Curtain

Comment:
Outstanding textures are captured in this shot. The electric conduit is a distraction for me because it is one of the things that I deal with at work, and also it does not fit the period of the building. There was not much you could do with it being there though, and still keep this composition looking right. Adobe is a great building material where the weather is not too damp. It would be moldy all the time here in Florida's humid climate.

Day 18 - The Very Last Leaf

There is something special about the last leaf. I like the bokeh in this shot too, as you mentioned.

I say Wow too! The light and dark sky just does it, whatever it is. I find it interesting that in the 640 sized image, it looks like the ghost of Frankenstien with a black robe is rising from behind the tombstone on the right. The texture on the walls of the building is just fantastic for this shot.

What a big looking eagle. They are powerful looking birds, even the smaller ones. Eagle Days, how cool is that?

This is beautiful stonework in this building. I think that I would have left he cars in the shot. The photograph is very good. The metal and glass doors seem very out of place on such a fine looking and stylish stone building.

You have a very nice park near where you live, and it is good that you use it. Birds are just cool.
Thanks for another completely different look at the place where you live.

This is sweet Roz! I like the blue misty looking foreground with the sunrise colors in the trees in this image. It's a lovely and serene finished shot.

This is special in the way you captured the light edges of the clouds, and the sun rays thru the openings in the background. Nice view too.
