Here is what I especially liked this week:


rob-vince, with evidence of the number of comments, this shot is spectacular in every way. A real work of art.





chris000, another landscape excellent for its composition, misty tones, and reflections.





Tuna, with this I like the crop, and luscious silvery tones and details.





Carlos M, a common enough sight but captured in a way that it would make a nice "large" print to hang on a wall.





furcafe, a unique and interesting shot of a commonly photographed subject. I like the "other-worldly" look of ascending into the open air and the out of context umbrella.





randomm, nice light that conveys the mood of waiting, that and the composition pull that off really well.






paulfish4570, an interesting perspective with selective focus, tones, and composition that adds the tension of wondering what the subject of interest might be.





snausages, perhaps my favorite of the week. If you like photos, then this one says all that needs to be said within the image itself.

Sereghasu in the tradition of Mr. Rodchenko:


Arjay: (the Coolpix 9xx series must be called digital classic!)


CarlosM; only one example for the many great compositions he creates!


l.mar; I like the motion and the crazy form of the front wheel!

my top shot for the week; perfect timing by chambrenoire:

[leica M2 fan]

Not at all surprising that this one was noticed by everyone.

[leica M2 fan]

This one gives us a perfect composition with great center interest.

[paulfish4570]

thanks, Brad.

[leica M2 fan]

Like the placement of the person slightly off center and the darker foreground and well lit background.

[leica M2 fan]

Intriguing! What's going down?

[mto'brien]

Thanks for the mention Paul.
