I like coming back long after a challenge has finished to enjoy the images for what they're worth outside the confines of the rules. It's interesting how different some photos appear when one is not having to vote them up or down. For instance, this quiet sample of non-urban life sticks in my mind. It has a persistence. In my own collection of photos, it is images like this which remind me of moments in time and they are valuable to me. Nice work - as is much in your folio...

Interesting to see that expensive lens in action. It does pack a punch. Nice work.

I usually save as JPEG10 sometimes 11 possibly 9. That seems to keep the quality better than, say, 'saving for web.' I try and keep the file size to less than 150kb.

That's the 85mm? Nice result. I had a few pings with the 135mm L recently and I have to say that is an exemplary lens too.

Stevie, this is a nicely dramatic photo. I like the lighting and the way the background contributes only a moody colouring. Good work. Look forward to seeing some more. Congratulations on your ribbon.
