Beautiful lines in your image and I like the strong contrast.

I'm a sucker for minimalist B&W photographs; for the things that are undeniably there but left unsaid. This is quite different from those pictures where the photographer suppresses or removes all of the background to "eliminate distractions", which is almost always a puerile and artless intervention that reduces the photograph to an improbable cartoon. In this picture the things not visible are nonetheless all there for the viewer to enjoy, with a wee bit of imagination. Into my own top ten, and thank you.

Extraordinary image!

This one is so compelling, I can't take my eyes off this image. I can only imagine how much those hands have felt and her eyes have seen in her lifetime.

I haven't handed out a verineat for a while, but I feel I have too with this amazing image. 10

It looks like they of the opinion that the question should not have been asked.
I love the light in this and the way it falls on the first monkey, but through the other two.

Both are good. If only the flower on the left was just inside the circle. and maybe the bit in the upper right wasn't there. Oh well, just my very humble opinion.
