For me, the pick of the best. A snippet from childhood. A half understood song. A glimpse. reminds me of a rocky schenck image. or Keith carter. My pick for the Blue. 10. Thanks for the inspiration.

Reminds me of an illustration from a children's book, or possibly something from the old Night Gallery. I have a feeling too much of the impact is derived from the frame. Anyhow, you have a place in my contemporary art gallery!

Among numerous blury images this one is not gratuitous and everything makes sense and I forget the technique and get just absorbed by the picture. Bump it to 9

I think the heavy frame overpowers the image. I really like the hint of grain. Nice sepia conversion. :) Me again. I'm negating the fact that the border is thick. I've looked this a dozen more times and am going to up my score. I'm not going to erase the original stuff, so you'll know how much I've gone back and forth. Upping to an 8

Interesting about the conversion to sepia. I see a little green in the shirt and red in the shorts. But I like the effect, because it reminds me of an old faded photo.
