From the Mekong series? Gorgeous image. It's grandeur is in its simplicity of the moment.

Beautiful B/W. The light to dark just perfect. I'm really surprised this didn't score higher.

Once again, nicely done. Your compositional style is worthy of study. Nothing dominates the frame in the classical I-am-the-focal-point sense. Rather, the interest seems to come from unexpected places -- margins, corners, backgrounds, etc. To borrow a hackneyed expression, the end result is greater than the sum of the parts.

The scarf covered face under that conical Asian hat presents a scene without human interference. The shapes reign here and they are presented with elegance and sensitivity. To me an alien world, one of painful beauty and eternal life.

If not for the slight detail in the man on the left. the medium is androgynous ambiguous. I like photos that come across like that. Cool stuff going on in the wall on the right.

I like how comfortable he is in this tiny little boat. Great series, BTW. (not voting)

A slice of life that I can't imagine surrounded by my concrete jungle. The hammock calls.

Cool image. The motion and the blur along with the grain give this such a mysterious feeling. Interesting title choice. I haven't heard or thought of that song in years. Pity that so many voters voted this low.

I immediately thought of Van Gogh too, and thought that somebody should have noticed that before me... and of course jmritz did :). Lovely composition, Paul
