Here's my quick take on this weeks gallery.

I see this landscape as an abstract with those fluid lines intersected
by all the perpendicular little posts. Fine composition with an
almost dizzying view point. Well done. Would love to see you do this one in black and white.

Love the color of these hairy little beauties. The hairy texture
makes a good contrast against the smooth inside of the flowers.
Great backlighting accentuates the hair (in lack of a better word for
it). Just a great macro!

You are showing fantastic detail and color. The different textures are
just amazing, and the little yellow on the tongue is the icing on the
cake. Mother Nature did a great job with those birds and you
depict it perfectly.
Charles Diaz
A book cover for "Wuthering Heights" was the first thing that came to
mind - a stark and lonely crossing of the road. The black and
white is perfect for the subject and you found just the right tonal
values.
Morley Roberts
He scares me... the gesture and the dead serious look in his eyes, even
the grumpy looking bunny are in stark contrast to the happy face paint
of a clown. Very interesting and the execution is flawless.
Elson T. Elizaga
The yummy looking detail of the meat would frighten a vegetarian to
death - ah, fibers of flesh on a plate surrounded by a sauce made of
its fluids. :) Almost too much information even for an avid
meat eater like me. "Butcher's Best" - well done - pardon
the pun.
Gregory David Stempel
Love it - I almost can hear them think - amazing what you put in this
photo. Love the little movement of the hand on the keyboard, the
concentration on their faces. Good stuff!
All in all - another great week in the Photoforum Gallery! Sorry
I couldn't find anything to gripe about, but it's all sugar and lots of
spice this week.
Have a good week all, and thanks for the kind words about my amateurish work - means a lot coming from the pros.
