Contemplation

Well.. sometimes one's predictions are almost spot on. Usually I'm not this good. lol. Of course, most of the comments I predicted didn't materialize.

Yah, I went the subtle route. I thought people might be inspired by this simple, reflective image.. instead of something out there, or crazy. I guess it can't be a photographer.. it has to be birds, in order to work that way. Also, I'm noticing that people seem to like yellow/gold a lot..

I can't believe people are still commenting about graininess these days.

When will people get around the fact that a nice photo is a nice photo regardless? lol

Ahhh DPC.. land of the artificially smooth.

Great placing!

Great capture. I love these "once in a million" shots far better than any tired, old, boring studio setup shot any day.
You win the blue ribbon in my world :)

You've got so many wonderful shots that I just didn't know what to comment on! So.. I came where I am most comfortable.. kid portraits. lol.

This is a beautiful shot. She looks a little nervous, but it makes for a great, realistic expression. The soft-focus effect is what it should be, effective, but not overpowering. You need to do more work like this :)

I love shots that defy convention. This is one of those. Great colors, focus and clarity again. Good for you for going where few others dare tread with a simple and static subject.

Communication - Vintage Mailboxes

This is a really good version of the original. I agree with what some had said, a sharper angle with a few more boxes might have been nice, but you sure nailed the focus and clarity.
