 THANK YOU everyone for the nice comments, votes and ribbon.
I never thought this would actually end up on the front page!! Wow.

Sat 5/23 - one day left to go for voting and quite clearly this will be a PB. Let's just say that I'm quite excited about that!

Not much to tell you about the image except that while walking to B&H I passed this big painting on the wall and by the time I came out the little painters had their gigs set up!! I found the highest point I could in the park across the street and went to work. I thought it looked pretty cool but I had no idea if anyone else would like it.

This is excellent (rather brilliant shot by the photographer). Good eye, great composition, and even emotive in some sense, because of the expressions in the painting and body language of workers. Like it a lot!

I like the pic, though the large painting does not say miniature to me.

Wonderfully disorienting, plus I like the hint of crosshatching.

Cool shot!

Even though the people come across as normal size, the juxtaposition with the giant soldier image makes them, indeed, appear miniature anyway. striking image, well noticed and well captured. Love the focal point effect of the yellow/orange shirt on the lower scaffold). Deserves to score high.
