Peggy's Cove Bagpiper

I like this picture - actually a lot. It tells the story of a musician who is working at a tourist spot, smiling, posing with tourists in front of countless mobile phones, tootling always the same melodies. But he never losses his good mood and humour! Or is he part of a band? I hope he gets some appropriate fee!

My only thing I want to gripe about is that the backpipe is cropped on the right, while there is plenty of room on the left side.
And, sorry, I really don't know: what does SooC mean?

Ha! This is gorgeous. Love the idea and how well it's done. There is even a reflection!
Will come back to vote

I agree with Ammie! Can't believe this wasn't rated higher by the voters... sigh...

But... you've got a quite big spot of sensor dust in your picture (between the two fags, above the taller flag)
Maybe you can't see it on your monitor

I didn't take a look to this thread until today - and I'm so happy I found your essay!

Your pictures of photographers made me laugh out loud - yes - that's how these crazy people behave when they are hoping for the perfect shot! I think almost everyone of us can relate... and I could almost feel the dust on my face watching your pictures. My favourites of this section are #03 and #15.

You've captured some wonderful moments of the enduro bikes too. So far I always fail when it comes to capture a speedy motif I want to follow with the camera in the same speed (how is the right englisch expression for this technique?) Here my favourites are #20 and #23

Thank you for sharing!

Emotive Landscape outtake

thats nice too but it doesn't evoke emotions as strong as the other one.
Your entry reminds me of a movie called "Himmel über Berlin"
Wings of Desire

basket case

Comment:
there are more than one level to get emotive.
The combination of people, basket and bird is special and rises so many questions.
Does the basket belong to the women
Will the bird snatch something from the basket
Why does the man wear a t-shirt, didn't he enter the sea?
Is it a mobile he's holding in his hand
Is it mother and daughter

I'd like to hear the sound of the pic - the sea and the gull

dead to the world

This is indeed a picture where the viewer can spend more than a moment. I doubt that all of the voters even read the Armani sign. Love the ambiguity.
And these aren't parking lines at the forgroud, right? Seems like some metal pieces in a wooden deck

I also like the speeding business man on the right. Love the clarity of the colours and the reflection on the train.
Well deserved HM - Congrats!

Congrats Mark!
Good choice to stand underneath the tracks, this is a suitable frame which definitely adds to the "speedy" bus
