As seen in the PF gallery at http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/gallery.html Lawrence Smith - CAJ #7: Very eye catching. Somewhat disturbing. Not to be ignored for sure. Blown-out highlights add to the feeling of strangeness. Jeff Spirer - Gesture: Seen this gesture many times but here presented with a slight twist that lifts it above commonplace. I like the inclusion of that little sign/paper on window at right. Photo has a bit of enigmatic quality to it. I myself don't like tatoos. Leslie Spurlock - The Teacher: Very good environmental portrait in my opinion. Obviously a math/finance lesson. Looks like an awfully small room. Illustrates the stressful conditions under which these teachers have to try to raise the educational level of the people. Trevor Cunningham - Shadow in the Petra Siq: Just a bit too dark for my taste. Foreboding and sinister locale. The light reminds me of a dagger. Good jumping off point to write a mystery novel maybe. Laurenz Bobke - Mosque in the Blue Hour: I like this for its very unusual lighting and coloration and exoticness. jIMMY Harris - Some Girls Got It!: Nice action photograph. Looks like girl and horse are operating at 100% throttle and in unison almost as if horse already knew the number they were going for. Impossible I know but ... Dan Mitchell - lunchtime: reminds me of my lunchtimes ... NOT! I like this urban pastoral scene. If they are related there are probably interpersonal "things" possibly going on here? Like is she doing crossword puzzle and will she ever get the rest of the paper? WRGill - gives me the shivers ... hanging on a loose canvas wing stiffened by wires stressing a main spar is unnerving just to think about but I bet the person hanging there is having the time of his life. Interesting scene. Peeter Vissak - Summer afternoon: Four (4) ... am I right? :) Were they trying to chase you away like barnswallows do to me when I set up to photograph their young? I bet the environment around you when you made the photograph was just wonderful. I'm jealous for not having experienced it also! Andrew Davidhazy - Prisoner of circumstance: Wonder what _this_ means? I think this is way too deep for me. OTOH it could be texturally very superficial and patently obvious. Definitely not something I could/would stare at for long. asta! andy
