A truly standout shot - an almost mathematical variety; brilliant crop/framing and use of your subjects to form their own leading line.

So similar yet so different. I look for that swooping shape a lot but never find it.

Great. I just shot some photos at the beach and now I have to throw them away. I love how you pulled out the simplicity in this busy scene.

This is a fun photo for the viewer to take in. The B/W is perfect for this and quite well done. Very nice! Good luck in the challenge.

Not something one sees everyday. A breath of fresh air. I'm somewhat bothered by the completely blown highlight along the edge of the water, but I won't let that keep me from giving this fine work 8.

im still in awe of this.
it reminds me of on of those maps where they plot the population by small human figures.
I believe I have also been to that beach, is thay where they have the "tin-tin swim school"?
