thanks for the mention ferider.
what a great selection of work posted in the gallery this past week!
luiman - Three generations (minus one)
one generation looking inward to the past, one looking outward to the future.
Mlehrman - On 8th Avenue line
interesting hands make a good subject - I admire anyone who can get a shot like this in a subway
Mlehrman - Commuters
another excellent street shot. Not a bit of space wasted in this frame.
Tuna - Vacationland
this is so funny, in a sad sort of way...
jgeenen - Girl Playing at Brickyard. Vietnam, 2011
a lovely child portrait. I like her expressive eyes.
theredone - on a foggy day
I like this for its mood/atmosphere
petronius - Alt246_10
great eye, the dress is a magnet...
petronius - 2012-01-07_14
Bleak mood. I love how the lack of detail forces our eye to search for information, and to grasp that which is presented.
petronius - 2012-01-05_01
multiple views of the same place in the one instant - reminds me a bit of Hockney..
OurManInTangier - InstaDyptych
two frames in one - excellent catch by a practiced eye...
OurManInTangier - People Watching
What I like about this is not just the two central characters and their priceless expressions, but the reflections of the women they are looking at.
Paulfish4570 - fresh from...
this is such a sweet portrait of a granddaughter, it makes the heart melt.

some more...
filmfan - Colorado. 2
Tuna
I like the contrast between the old man and the girls, and the expressions
Craife - Hofe Cricket
a reportage feel; I liked the subject, POV (could have been taken by a fly-on-the-wall), and composition
Semrich - Notre Dame
this photo says "city of light"
Semrich - **** (Paris, France)
what a character!
gm13
lovely street photo - I wonder what she's seen...
mudride - Paris mon amour 5
I like the mood and movement, and the POV
Walter Leporati - Central Park Mist
this classic composition has a timeless feel
isorgb - L1
I like the intimacy in this

Interesting abstract and design
LukeT - Hexar AF1

Like Lynn says, a fantastic week. Here are my picks:
jwnash1, a timeless shot, I like how the riders appear to emerge from the dust.
And 2 from Tuna,
At first it looks like a mannequin then the realization it's a half marathon runner with his game face on.
and the corollary to it is the spectators.
filmfan, Superb!!
Alex Krasotkin, great hat, great smile, super portrait.
lynnb, the gull adds a lot to this.
OurManInTangier, 5 people in two frames and no eyes connect.
luiman, a most interesting composition and metaphorical shot.

I like the pose, it seems natural to me and like the football prop.

I love the tones, the texture, the simple, but effective composition, and the way the background melts away smoothly - the depth of field here is just right. from ferider:
And another from his San Gregorio set. I love the atmosphere - mysterious, ethereal, transcendent, are words that come to mind when I look at this picture - and the seagull really adds something special. This set is a meditation with a camera:
Here's one from kaspartuu. The composition grabbed my attention immediately while scrolling through the thumbnails. The lady in white against the dark background works very well:
Man in a Trechcoat by Stefan Jozeph - dynamic and timeless at the same time. A classic:
And one from filmfan - another simple, but very effective composition. timeless and classic, with a bit of mystery. beautiful:
Another great one from lynnb. He does some the best seascapes I've ever seen. This one has an abstract, other worldly quality to it that really works for me. Great tones and texture too:
And speaking of other worldly, another from filmfan. wonderful:

Roland, Randy, thanks, I don't normally play in this sandbox and I never ever post my paid work. This morning walk snap (for fun, not paid) was for all the folks up north wishing for Spring and Summer... shorts and tee shirt this afternoon in Atlanta...heh, heh...
It is also about to be hung on the wall at the condo.
