My Comments on the ones that really got me excited:
Seven Sisters by Two Wanderers by Bill Heifer
One of my favorite subjects. Nicely captured. I've been viewing this for
the last month. Amazing to look at them all, even through binoculars. I
live in a very dark sky area. You've inspired me to get out and try the
same!
Wildlife by Dan Scott
Very nice. It may be the unusual color of the blue flower that really
attracts me. Can't believe it's hand-held, but I suppose a fly just
wouldn't sit there throwing up on things waiting for the tripod. :-)
Detail of a Yellow Flower by Chris Niesmertelny
Beautiful! Unusual angle is very interesting. Great combination of in/out
focus areas.
Dandelion Getting Bald by Jan van Wijk
Great shot. Unusual because most Dandelion shots focus on the whole
puffball. A very interesting composition, with a less than "perfect"
subject.
The Brickwall by Daphne Schnitzer
Nice and colorful. The tight composition makes one wonder what is outside
the frame.
Old Circuit by Collin Brendemuehl
Pretty neat. I like the colors and the combination of both horizontal and
vertical elements.
Synthetic Larva by Luis Salado
Cool interpretation. I always like the plain and ordinary made interesting.
I still think we should have a "What is it?". Come on PDML... this is at
least the 3rd time I've suggested it! :-)
I by David A. Mann
Quite an unusual composition. The shadow and lighting is nice. Was the
person asleep or just pretending?
Here Kitty Kitty by Erik Nylander
I would say I like this except that I am having a civil war with our four
cats at the time. It's my mistake of being too softhearted that I had to
keep two of the recent litter. But now I've got a new vehicle and the cats
have jumped on the hood, rolled around on it with grit on themselves and
either slid or jumped with their claws extended leaving claw marks in the
paint. Now I'm not allowed to get rid of them because it wouldn't be
showing unconditional love. Boo Hoo Hoo. My only solace is I now have a
"Scat Mat" on the hood that delivers an electrical shock when touched.
After a week of staying off, one obviously thought they would try their luck
this morning. :-) :-) :-) Sorry. this isn't much of a photo comment. Nice
Shot.
Pattern of Life by Matjaz Osojnik
Cool Shot. Is it a river or is it a shot from space a hundred miles
overhead? Another one that would have been good for the "What is it?"
theme. Hint, Hint.
The Force Inside by Tadek van Bussel
Very nice. A strong composition with impact.
First Snow by Peter Alling
I like it. I was contemplating using several that were very close to this.
On my screen the picture appears to get slightly narrower from top to
bottom. Is this possibly an optical illusion created by the angles of the
pine needles? Does anyone else see this?
Superior Rocks by Ken Waller
Nice composition. Strong image.
Screen Shot by William Robb
Nice shot Bill. I had actually contemplated the same thing, except I am
embarrassed to say that after moving 5 months ago, I still have not found my
FA 100/2.8 macro. I am starting to get a little worried because I have torn
open almost every one of the 30+ boxes still in the garage and have not seen
it. I am hoping that I packed it tightly and securely between some other
items and it is just hiding from me.
My personal favorite if the month is:
Dinosaur Skin by Mark Roberts
What a great shot! Couldn't be better! Superb! Monde wall-hanger!
Portfolio entry. What more can I say? Congratulations.
Thanks for putting up with my subjective ramblings.
