Great shot of a Hairstreak butterfly. My guess is that the markings are indeed a ruse to deter predators.
Per Ofverbeck: "Leek" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/ofverbeck.html
Beautiful juxtaposition of the green and white of the leeks against the dark wood grain. Well composed, well exposed.
Snapper Bob: "Mazda Rx8 (X-men)" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/earnest.html
Technical perfection. Having said that, the subject matter doesn't create a lot of excitement for me.
Bob Talbot: "Eternity" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/talbot.html
Very nice collage. Photos as metaphors, however, generally leave me with my head spinning like Linda Blair.
Guy Glorieux: "Ste-Ursule's Falls" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/glorieux.html
Peaceful sort of nature shot, pastel-like on my monitor. I don't get much of an impression of the falls however.
Rick Kessler: "Several nights before Christmas" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/kessler.html
Great job of stitching the three photos together. I'm sure it's even more impressive when the faces of the singers can be resolved. Nicely lit with the audience just suggested in the foreground.
Shawna Hanel: "Cars" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/hanel.html
With no context here I guess this is another metaphor for something. Great color. I enjoyed the photo just as a reminder of my childhood and the toys I used to play with......when my Mom could afford them.
Emily L. Ferguson: "Myrrh??? But We need a shovel" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/ferguson.html
Whimsical. Made me feel really sorry for the Baby Jesus.
C J R Strevens: "Junction Near Clapham Junction 2" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/strevens.html
I love cartoons but not here.
WRGill: "Dawn at Point Sur, Big Sur, CA http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/gill.html
Not enough contrast. Very little here to hold interest.
Basil Saif Farhan: "Emirates Towers Hotel" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/farhan.html
An *I was there* sort of shot to me. Too monochromatic.
Andrew Davidhazy: "Star trail fantasy" http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery/davidhazy.html
Neat!!!
