hmm - did anyone call for help? They had to have thought you were nuts to be on the floor taking this shot. lol

This is such an intelligent and artistic photo. I love the play on opposites, dark/light, hidden/exposed, eyes closed/opened and there are probably more that I'm missing. Compositionally, this is also great. The child placed so high up on the frame suggest superiority, perhaps even god like superiority. The choice in having a child play that role couldn't be any better, IMO.

Ok, maybe I'm reading too much but your artistry in crafting this photo led me there. Well done. This gets my YankO Blue (along with another photo). Good Luck!

For years photogs have been trying to capture the rare and elusive "One Legged Blur Monster" often reported swooooshing aroung the local shops stealing jewelry and posting bills, and you caught her in one brief instance. Finally, there is proof! Great job!

And I am just trying to imagine what would happen if I took covert and conspicuously low angle shots of women on the street. ;-)

Gutsy! Kudos to you for getting down and dirty for 'the shot'. It's paid off, excellent work. Fellow just inside left of frame has been stalking the woman at the counter all day.

Awesome b/w tones and sharp action with motion. It makes me want to look at it longer and gain an appreciation for their lives.
