Relax

Cough, Cough.....

This really doesn't look to me like the kind of person who can sit back and relax with a good cigar (and maybe a glass of port). This looks like a kid who is trying a cigar for the first time--and experimenting with ways of blowing the smoke.

windows to the soule

I'm trying hard but I'm really not getting this. I thought the eyes were the window to the soul--but I can't see her eyes. What is the black hose or wire doing there? Did it drag away the groom? I'm sorry, but this really doesn't seem peaceful to me.

This kind of peace is the same for everyone; we all die.

Nice. Centered compositions are usually too static for me but this is fine for a challenge with this theme.

I had to Google your title to make sense of it. Now that I understand the Louis Armstrong reference, I really like the image.

Where I like to be alone

I'm sure this place has a lot of personal meaning for you but it doesn't suggest peace or tranquility to me. I see cold snow and a turbulent stream.

Sleeping

Babies are certainly peaceful while they are asleep. This would be much better without the blue blob.

Lamps of Peace

Comment:
I like the feel of this. Do those lamps really symbolize peace in your culture?

Where I Find Peace

I'm sure you find peace here but what about the neighbors who have to listen to you practice? ;-) I'll accept that this represents peace to you but it is not what I think of when I see this image.

I like the bold, graphic quality of the image. It might be improved by moving further from the wall so the shadow would not be visible. Darker pants would also keep them from being blown out.

The pathway of peace

Great colors and a nicely composed image. I don't get a strong feeling of peace or tranquility from it.
