Nice lighting and I like the lines created by the stone leading the eye across the frame and to the subject.

I love, love, love , the focus on the nose- every kitty shot I see makes me practically weep for my lost Max- & hubby is not "ready " for another yet... Thanx, Deb.

Black and white is much better for this one. That's my vote anyway.

Awesome! I CAN'T not comment on this. You know how I LOVE soldier photography! I love how the back lighting frames his head, almost like a halo, which is quite appropriate for any one of our soldiers :) It's so nice to see such relaxed enjoyment on a guy. Comforting in light of the extreme sacrifices soldiers are called on to make in the course of their jobs.

Oh how I love this photo. I love how you have shown the person without a face. Somehow, it makes it more personal. . .maybe more universally appealing for some reason. The photo touches me because I see the same look in the eyes of the geese and ducks that I see on "my" geese and ducks at the park every day. They are almost like beloved pets. The black and white processing also gives the photo that urban look that I love so much. I just keep looking at it, and I like it more, the more I look :)
