I like this a lot, it evokes feelings of care-free summers. I think it appeals to my romantic notion of the person I want to be...
03/20/2009 02:33:49 PM
this shot has the feeling that something good is in store for the woman, just around the bend
03/19/2009 08:40:21 AM
Lovely lines and great b&w conversion. I gave this an 8 in voting.
03/18/2009 08:06:29 PM
this has a old time feel to it and wants a story to be told.

More than a walk. There is a store here. Imagine.
03/17/2009 05:39:46 PM
Good sense of back lighting. An interesting commentary piece.
03/17/2009 12:30:54 PM
This is really nice, I love the black and white for it, really tells a story.
03/17/2009 12:20:20 PM
Nice serene and peaceful rural scene. Works well in B&W.
03/17/2009 10:40:00 AM
The girl's clothes almost mirror the landscapes tones, nice timing
03/17/2009 09:04:12 AM
Like the composition, the shades...
03/16/2009 10:51:34 PM
Great shot - looks like it could be out of the 40's - in France, England, Italy, or the U.S.
03/16/2009 12:06:18 AM
Nice shot, and good choice going with B&W
03/15/2009 12:06:07 PM
very much a 40's feel to this image, toning really works
03/15/2009 12:03:43 PM
What a gorgeous road to walk down.
03/15/2009 09:35:06 AM

good conversion to black and white
03/14/2009 06:37:04 PM
Technically competent with very good tones. I need a little more though to raise my interest level.
03/14/2009 05:11:07 PM
Nice tones, good shot.
03/14/2009 05:03:30 PM
Love the story, the shadows the mood. A fave
03/14/2009 03:14:32 PM
Very nice--I'm glad you did it in black and white.
03/14/2009 02:01:12 PM
Why would she be dresses like this and walking a dirt road!?
03/14/2009 09:55:14 AM
how wonderful...excellent tones, nice and rich
03/14/2009 09:30:12 AM
What a beautiful shot.
03/14/2009 06:46:51 AM
A simple but effective image; you've made a choice to go for monochrome - I not sure that was necessarily a good match for this scene but only you know how this and the colour version looked.
03/14/2009 05:12:16 AM
Lovely light and contrast here. Nice long shadows.
03/13/2009 05:53:30 PM
I like that you have her in the light between the trees, makes me wonder where she is going
03/13/2009 04:50:24 PM
Nice POV and choice of B&W.
03/13/2009 04:48:37 PM
The bag makes this even more wonderful. I can imagine many stories about this image.

Very nice, beautiful contrast, I could think up a story and I like that in a photo. My first 9. Congrats.
03/13/2009 06:18:38 AM
A human element always makes a simple photo much more interesting, 6
03/13/2009 03:22:08 AM
Beautifully sharp image with some strong compositionally aware light
03/13/2009 02:58:56 AM
looks pretty serene
03/13/2009 02:44:44 AM
Whare is she going? What is this place? I wonder what her story is.
Pretty shot.
03/13/2009 01:16:57 AM
I love how small she looks compared to the trees.
03/12/2009 07:46:15 PM
The trees lining this road are great, lends a sense of it being an old road she is traveling.
03/12/2009 07:04:00 PM
Feel like I'm right behind her, and the hills in the distance enhance the sense of place. 7
03/12/2009 06:42:44 PM
I really like the girl walking in the picture. Gives it a lot of interest. Nice tones!
03/12/2009 04:59:17 PM
I like the contrast.
03/12/2009 04:43:10 PM
Simple and good.
03/12/2009 04:06:33 PM
This is among the best of the challenge in my opinion. Composition and subject are so well chosen. Overall presentation feels nostalgic. I fear voters won't appreciate it as much as I do but maybe it will win one of the side awards.
03/12/2009 03:55:21 PM
Very serene
03/12/2009 03:46:55 PM
great image, composition and shadows. nice b&w conversion. great shot
03/12/2009 02:40:18 PM
Excellent impressionistic feel
03/12/2009 12:28:02 PM
a tad to dark in my eyes
03/12/2009 04:25:40 AM
I really love the mood of this, and I'm so glad you chose b & w. The tones in the trees are especially pleasing, as is her stance- counterbalancing the weight of the bag with the body.
03/11/2009 11:53:26 PM
crop the white out of the top.. now we're talking
03/11/2009 09:11:10 PM
It just seems to say 1950's. Nice job.
03/11/2009 01:44:18 PM
Beautiful shot! Has a very lovely nostalgic look that is very pleasing to me. Maybe a touch more contrast could have made it pop just a little more. An image to feel very proud of.
03/11/2009 12:35:20 PM
This is a very pleasant photo. One of my favorites so far!
03/11/2009 10:28:48 AM
Her slim figure mimics the shape of the trees.
03/11/2009 09:52:51 AM
I like the tones. The subject isn't tack sharp, which after looking for a few minutes I think is a good think. This shot looks like film to me. And, of course, you can never go wrong with the rule of thirds.
03/11/2009 08:42:52 AM
nice shadowplay. excellent b/w conversion
03/11/2009 05:44:21 AM
Nice tones, perfect in b/w!
03/11/2009 04:43:32 AM
Splendid place for a walk! Has the feel of Italy or northern California for some reason. A very relaxing scene.
