This just has my name written all over it. I love silhouettes, horses and sunsets, so you just tied this up with a ribbon!! I love it. Those Icelandic horses just fascinate me. I hope to see them up close some day. :)

This is SO SWEET!!! It almost looks like you duplicated and flipped the image. Whatever you did, it works really well. The overlay makes it extra cozy.

I Love what this overlay does to the photos...as it did with your "Kids" composition I feel that this is another storybook where the main character is a girl. We dive into the pages of the book that begins with her life as child that we will then follow as the story progresses.

Your shots make their hardship more distant because of the natural beauty you capture, which is not wrong, just the way I see what you show. But I do like your pictures and appreciate your attempts to show us their world

And yet, they are so graceful and beautiful. I had the immense pleasure of being in Africa (Kenya, Uganda) many years ago, and vowed to go back some day. There is an earthiness and serenity there that I've never felt anywhere else.

I love this diptych and the incredible pp'ing. Did you use an overlay for the shape or was that done in PS as well?

Beautiful photos, as usual. May I ask something that might sound weird? Do a lot of women have very short hair in this place?

Like a broken film reel of life in a third world country. Wonderful!

Memories of childhood and school days open like the pages of a book. Great processing as that I have the feel that I am diving into a story that opens up with exploring the past of the main characters life starting with his school days.
