> Greg Fraser (Rose) - Not a rose. More dementia. Well, it was a nice pattern ... I love it personally . > Dan Mitchell (Remembrance) - Timely but aesthetically kind of dull. I have to agree. Poppies - wonderful invaders we never got rid of.

Blurriness does not seem to help the image nor does the high contrast. WInchester is always worth a visit. Agree with you though Greg ... the image lacks a raison d'etre ... The blur effect is - well interesting. It would be a tighter composition without the second (partially hidden) child. > Deen Hameed - I really like this shot. So do I. What is that line just under the border top right?

Well, Chris was right (about it being seen not made) and Greg, well, does everything have to be a fake these days? It probably is boring actually. It really was just something seen while on a long circular walk from Richmond, through Richmond Park (absolutely heaving with green parrots!), then along the river visiting Ham House and Teddington Lock. Just a gateway with three numbers . not just three but (to my mathematical brain) all threes. The series 1, 3, 9, ... What's next? 27? or maybe 19? But also, the repeat three times. Most of all though the (apparent) absurdity of someone taking the trouble to replace the numbers on the wall by thier gate without reomving the old versions. Maybe it's failing eyesight (like mine). Each time the numbers have got bigger. Anyway, for sure it is Number 139 ... i think I got the message ;o) Oh, and Jimmy wrote under his image: "no one else gives details" OK, the house is located in Outer London (district Ham) on the North side of the Petersham Road (A307). Map shown at: http://makeashorterlink.com/?M32B525C9 Is that enough detail? > Emily L. Ferguson (Ocean rapids ) - The peaceful, headless guy at the right Don't think this is one of Emily's best. The other bloke is pure distraction. The lighting direction is wrong ... > Laurenz Bobke (Morning Lake) - Apart from being from an exotic-sounding place this does little for me > Trevor Cunningham (Jill's Cottage) - Very dark on my monitor (PC) The dark water dominates - too much maybe. > Leslie Spurlock (Stranded) - Interesting and "out there" commentary on a real life situation. Not controlled media - just there. Get out and walk with the camera - water or no! > jIMMY Harris (Hot Rod) - A very good shot Jimmy. Well composed by and by, would have benefitted from a slightly richer sky (polariser?) > Peeter Vissak (Who's on the phone?) - Mmmmm ... A shot for the family album?
