 This is Josh. He broke his leg on a trampoline. (Oh trampolines... breaker of child legs, giver of non-stop enjoyment.

Josh has learned that just because you have a cast on, doesn't mean you have to sit around moping. That dirty foot tells a tale.

My one and only favourite from this challenge - I have been thinking about this photo all week and wondering who the talent was behind it.

I LOVE the naturalness of the moment - it really IS just LIFE!

Hope you love it - you should, regardless of the voters!


I do really love it. Here's the full color version, which I also think is a bit stronger.

I expected this to do slightly better.. but eh, what can ya do. 5.5 isn't so bad. 2 favorites is better!

I think it was the Posthumous comment and 9 though.. would have been a 7.5 if not for that ;)

A touching photo, but I'm not sure if the focus is the colors on the shirt or the cast, as both seem to be in color. It's a nice photo though.

I really like your shot here. Like the DOF and composition. Also the B/W contrast is great. Very nice editing.
