Hi all,
I originally sent this on Saturday and it seems to have gotten lost in
cyberspace. If it shows up eventually and there is a duplicate, I
appologize.

Happy 4th of July to all. I know it is only a
holiday over here but it is still July 4 everywhere:-)
As I sit here with a summer cold here are my
early thoughts on this week's gallery.
Don Feinberg: I also really like this stairwell
and photographed it myself with a slightly different viewpoint ( http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=4508600 and
yes the print scan was dark but there really is more detail there). I also
like that you resisted centering the spiral.
Emily L. Ferguson: Very nice in general. The
lighting across the foreground rocks is good. A slight elevation of the
camera, if possible, would have seperated these rocks from the cliff in
the distance.
Don Roberts: An interesting image that could use
some different Photoshop processing. I find it too contrasty, the black
silo, and the white walls are too grey.
Bob Sull: A nice fun shot. The gull really looks
like it is on guard for parkers and will come steal food if they
do.
Marilyn Dalrymple: Making cute kitten shots are
tough without them looking like all the others. This one is well
done.
Michael Hughes: Although I liked last week's
image the title now makes more sense. This is a nice record of the scene and
could have been improved with less direct light.
Chris Strevens: A unique scenic photograph. The
inclusion of the car interior and the tea makes it quite personal.
