		| | Who says "busy" pics can't work.  The lines and angles in this are great.  B&W was perfect (but a sepia tone might work well too). |

		| | Very good composition. I agree with the choice of B&W for this shot; it works well here. |

		| | Pretty nice facility.  The white bench/glare around it are the only problem item I can see in this.  I like having demonstration/activity, but this works, too.  8 Swash |

		| | This is a fine picture and I have revisited a few times. You have turned a place of sweat and muscle into a place of beauty and serenity. Good craftmanship. Could you do a couple of portraits of me, too? :) |

		| | This is a really nice black and white.. I particularly like the perspective you chose.. the diagonals in the floor keep this photo from looking 'plain'.  excellent shot.. = 8 - jmsetzler |

		| | To have so much stuff in it, I find this to be a really simple, clean picture.  I like that.  I think the black and white works very well, too.  Though I really like the "stillness" of it, it would have told a neat story to show a lone athlete resting on a piece of equipment.  But that would be a different picture.  Don't change this one! karmat |

		| | It surprises me that I like this shot so much.  It's so complex, yet so organized.  Simple shapes, simple lines -- all forming an intriquite design.  Great tones as well.  Very nice photogrpah. |

		| | haunted feel to this, lik everyone suddenly left.    Could see this as a 'scene setting' shot for a series of studies of smaller parts of the scene.  E.g., the rope on the bars, a ring, etc. |
