I like the effect a lot. It gives an ordinary texture some form and structure.

Maybe not sharp enough to go in the paper, but the emotion is excellent.

Read some of the comments....you handhold a 400/2.8??? I can't even lift a 400/2.8, much less hold it steady for any length of time.

One of your best. At first I only saw 2 people, then I saw the woman looking out the window, forming a triangle with the other two. She holds the image together somehow.

LOL. You made me look up Fushigi Ball. I see the top of a glass coke bottle.

Snow

Comment:
Oh, good God, that's a lot of snow! This is my favorite of the 6 you presented. It has tons of life and the film gives it a nostalgic feel. Or maybe it's just because I was in a blizzard of my own yesterday.

I quite like the gold tones and the contrast in the bubbles. This isn't my favorite of your images, and I can't tell you why not. But...as a technical study, I think you nailed what you were trying to accomplish.

How do I get there? (7/52)

A very sweet shot. As far as what you could do with the editing, I might add a slight vignette. Other people noticed the white pole behind him. I didn't notice that, but I noticed the white pole on the right edge of the frame. A bit of a vignette might take that down so it's not as noticeable. Otherwise, I tend to prefer a natural look, so I'm probably not the right person to ask.
