My LynnB of the week:

I also liked the wave shots – almost the opposite of this one in feeling as well as compass direction. But the sense of impending gloom and the two stoic birds wins out.

A simple but effective still life from Baby of Macon


Biomed’s stunning bomber – a sense of stillness and movement all at once; past and present

Siracusa, a playing a bit of a blinder this week: so many great photos. My favourite for the feel of it:

Although the flying skater was catchy too.
And this one:

Works from any angle!

Finally, Pete Chipman’s otherworldly cave:

Thank you siracusa.

Biomed: I like the exposure and colors on this one

F16Sunshine - Kosher Salt: I thought it was a mannequin at first glance. Bizarre and pleasantly unexpected image.

Siracusa - 0961 C, or thereabouts

Mlehrman - Jersey City: I like the conflict between 2-d and 3-d

Cinemakyle - Venice Beach, California: Looks like a still from a movie, a nice slice of life, that defies time

 

[StefanJozef]

Thanks biomed for choosing my photograph.
