Thanks, Harry Teasley and Luigi (Luiman). I've got some catching up to do so I can post some of my picks this week. It looks like many of my favorites are up here already. Another great week.

Dave Sang...

 

[robklurfield]

Tuna
A wonderful composition. Between the angle from which he's captured the building, getting just the right glints of light and reflection on its glass, and the way he framed the street sign, this building looks as if it could have landed here from outer space.

 

[robklurfield]

Another from Tuna. I love the irony and that he managed to arrive to catch this image whilst his own name was on the sign.

 

[robklurfield]

sometimes, my picks here are selected because the image says something to me. in the case of jwnash1, I simply like the beauty of his picture.

bike tourist (Dick Thorton)....
Even though I'm guessing she crashed at least once, given that her brake/shifter is all out of whack, he's caught her at a moment of pure joy. Honestly though, I think she could stand to have a bit more mud on her to prove her mettle as cyclocrosser (cyclocrossist???).

bwcolor...

ZorkiKat...
I like the contrast of the girl's intense stare against the array of dried fish.

 

[jordan.dickinson]

Thank you Semrich, Shac, and Filmfan. I really appreciate the mentions, and the dedication to this thread every week!

 

[robklurfield]

Luiman...
A beautiful image and a nicely-placed shadow.

 

[robklurfield]

I like the bright intensity of the light and the deep shadows in CarloM's image...

 

[robklurfield]

two more by Tuna.
the first is filled with wit and irony...

and the second is simply a great composition...

 

[robklurfield]

Keith has been showing some great found images he's been scanning for a friend. This one is particularly striking...

 

[robklurfield]

a compelling image from Dave Lackey...

 

[robklurfield]

from Steve Kessel, a rendering of spousal concern...

Walter Leporati had some great images from Chinese New Year celebrations in NYC before the city banned fireworks...
