I didn't expect to like any of the seascape or other water shots, but you proved me to be an ignorant fool. This is excellent. 7.

Boston Ivy
by digifotojo

Comment:
This is wonderful. I just love how it inhabits that tiny space between the explicit and the abstract; not quite either one, and yet both. I'm a big fan of images that get at the essence of their subject, and I don't care at all about the 1 second bit (this could actually be 1/100sec or 5 minutes). So it's an 8 from me.

The Smoker
by RulerZigzag

Comment:
Smokers. Why do they always stand right at the door? (I speak as a reformed smoker of course)
Quick story: One of Australia's leading businessmen was showing a very distinguished European counterpart around Sydney's central business district. The visitor remarked they he was surprised at the number of prostitutes brazenly touting for business around the front of respectable office buildings in broad daylight. Our guy had to explain that they were all actually secretaries and other office staff sneaking outside for a smoke.

Your photograph is excellent. There's a very strange connection between the smoker and the wee person above the door. Maybe it's that they are about the same size., and dressed the same. Whatever, I like it. 7.

Bus Ride to the Church for All Souls
by dainmcgowan

Comment:
The bus is good, for sure, but what I most like is the juxtaposition of the All Souls spire with the construction cranes. Something reassuring about how these two make way for each other, across the centuries. 7.

Butterfly In-Waiting
by 777STAN

Comment:
It's a very beautiful photograph, and yet if it were already the butterfly I probably wouldn't give it a second glance. I suppose it's because it seems so harmonious this way; the caterpillar and the tree bark seem more comfortable with each other, while the adult butterfly would dominate the scene. 7.

Water Spout
by goinskiing

Comment:
Much better than all the waterfalls; it makes me think outside the frame. Where's the water coming from? Why is there a spout and not a spillway? All that stuff. I like it.

Yes, the movement is translated into low frequency vibrations. So it's apt and very enjoyable. 7.

Steamy Sugar Factory

Comment:
I thought it was a fire at first. I suppose everyone did. It's interestingly weird, or weirdly interesting. I like it.

M I D D A Y : R U S H
by hotpasta

Comment:
That's odd ... a selective desat that I don't mind at all. It's interesting to ponder the question of whether my reaction to it would be similar if the people were desaturated instead of the environment. Would it still seem to be about the people then? Or would it be about the city? I don't know for sure. That's why I like it. 7.
