Just a few words about each submission this week: Leslie Spurlock Haitian street kid Excellent photojournalism. Personally, I don't have what it takes for this type of photography. I guess I'm too shy. Try not to cut off a head like this though next time :-) Gregory david Stempel Mamiya in the sun You got a lovely triagulation going here with the cat opposite the rays. I'm a bit unsure about that those objects are in the background. On first look I thought that was a laundry basket, now it looks more like an antique baby bed. Perhaps show a bit more or none at all? Just my opinions of course but I feel if a picture is an element that can be moved, it's ok if it improves. Otherwise it just adds clutter, I mean if it's not apparent what it is, or what it's purpose is, how it relates to the scene, whatever. Hope this helps. Shawna Hanel Injustice I have to take this as a pure abstract of sorts, and as that it's pretty well balanced and composed, with interesting colours and textures. No my bag, but good for a photo of a cheap plastic toy. You make these toys look too good! Jim Snarski Gull Friend Having just had a series in Gallery X of my gull photos go uncommented on, no comment. Just kidding. Nicely captured moment, perhaps a bit dark underwing. Film in midday'll do that. D.L. Shipman Anhinga - Venice FL, 2003 Wow, another nice shot of a bird I've never even seen. Well done Dave, keep up the good work. Jim Davis Flying Low Just an easy snapshot I liked. Note, that 'gargage' on the bird's foot is actually a short piece of dried up reed that he'd been walking on. On checking all my Egret shots, only one or two show this colour of leg on an Egret. Most are definitely green on the little or snowy Egret. So this is an Intermediate Egret. John Palcewski On the wall. I think you should have zoomed it in a bit to show just what these objects might represent. I can't quite tell by reading any text on things. And the snorkelling rig doesn't show up well at all. Per Ofverbeck Winter weeds I love it, Per. Sometimes it's the simple images that really make it. And unusual lighting too. Jeff Spirer Yellow Hydrant This would be a masterpiece if the front of the building were not clipped so tight. Can you take it out of the slide mount and get that little bit extra? Where do you find such scenes? amazing Shyrell Melara I'm Soooo Bored! Shyrell, you need to talk to other owners of this camera. You could do this perhaps on some forum, or find a newsgroups. Try a Google newsgroup search of this make and model. You might find this is a flaw that can be fixed, or replaced. That sucks with 256 colours or whatever is happening there. Even the first cellphone with a camera was better than that. Think about it. Trevor Cunningham Umm, Houston...We have a problem. Oh, that is a wild and whacky image. Too bad right and bottom are so cut off. I want to know more viewing this. Kostas Papakotas wino Excellent work but yes you should have placed a cheap bottle of wine or something in the photo. this bear does look a bit hung over though Hey, I found out how to easily grab all the text in the gallery. I simply highlighted it plus the images and copied, then pasted into my email. The images didn't come, just the text, but that sure saves me tons of work doing a review. Try it. Maybe you'd do more reviews if it was easier. -- Checkout the Motorcycle Headlight Relay Kit at: http://jimdavis.oberro.com/html/bike_acc_.html Jim Davis Nature Photography http://jimdavis.oberro.com
