Obwong Silhouette
Thanks to you all, tremendous efforts.
 
Thank you Leica M2 fan, Petronius and Luiman for choosing my pictures!

Here are my picks:

Obwong - Silhouette. I'm impresed by the simplicity of this low-key image that features a strong sense of space and a mysterious atmosphere.
U14941I1292342121.SEQ.0.jpg



Ezzie - White on Black. I love this picture for its beautifully differentiated white and black tones, its composition and the fractal shapes.
U32099I1292355715.SEQ.0.jpg



dwp - Smoking. I'm impressed by this picture's composition (square format is particularly tricky) and the quiet, relaxed mood of this picture.
U27425I1292390569.SEQ.0.jpg



Paulfish4570 - Minimal 15. The strictness of those horizontal and vertical lines is in stark contrast with the slanted door and its irritating, slightly offset placement.

Filmfan - Random 1. Very impressive self-portrait - unpretentious, yet very sophisticated in an effortless way.
U19407I1292465792.SEQ.0.jpg



David67 - London, 2008. Beautiful framing and wonderful tonalities.
U40493I1292671374.SEQ.0.jpg



Filmfan - Magic Bus. This one's hilarious. Watch out, the blue meanies are taking over.
U19407I1292696291.SEQ.0.jpg



Luiman - 02. A beautiful abstract composition with a hint of mystery, as if this is about to become a crime scene.

Wow. I did not think I would make it in here this week... Do I deserve it? Probably not, but I'll take it.

My second pick is David67's "London, 2009"
U40493I1292671372.SEQ.0.jpg
 
I tried to limit myself to just one or two favorites this week but its just impossible to do, to many fantastic shots.

newspaperguy (I loved the vintage image and the subject matter .... a Zora-Arkus Duntov Stingray prototype on the track in 1961-- very cool indeed)

Frank Petronio (from my comments: "Great image, Frank. While I can't help staring at their eyes, let predict with great confidence that this image sets some kind of record for the most views on RFF this month, this year, maybe ever. And, it won't be because of their eyes. In any case, I love the light here. I suspect that the "horny old (and young) photographer/viewer/voyeur effect" will make this image a record-setter. Everyone looking will, for a moment at least, think that Kris and Meagan are looking at them....")
