thanks to barnwulf for a mention this week. there is nothing for me to disagree with among everyone else's picks, so i think i will leave it that. too much chemo inertia to overcome this week with thoughtful picks ...

 

[ChEc]

Thank you!

Chris, i liked your pigeon block best among your shots last week ..

 

[lynnb]

thanks to the kind people who mentioned my photos!

There were so many good photos posted to the gallery this week.

My favourite colour shot for the week:
Mlehrman - Diner, Belfast, Maine. Could be Hopper.

My favourite bw shot for the week:
Mlehrman - Book Fair, Manhattan

taskoni - Lady in Red.

jgilo - claire. Beautiful portrait, lovely lighting.

reagan - Landscape 1, posted in the 2011 FSU Contest. Poignant; I think the high contrast processing suits the starkness of the scene

Robklurfield - All I Saw Was His Tail Lights. I like Rob's strong, low POV composition and the car is perfectly placed. I hope you take care on those narrow verges, Rob - you don't want to end up as another exhibit!

Jack Conrad - Shell Crackers. When I saw this I was amazed at the apparent EV range. Lovely shot.

Frank Version Two - Witches. Armed, and not to be messed with.

Swann - Greenhouse. I liked the formal composition, colour and grain, and detail

StillKicking - M3 Summarit. I like the feeling, and the tonality

and some more:


Frank Version Two - Witches. Armed, and not to be messed with.

Swann - Greenhouse. I liked the formal composition, colour and grain, and detail

Vince Lupo - Untitled. A great find. I also thought the composition and tonality are excellent. My wife asked it this house had been picked up and dropped there by a tornado?

nzeeman - photo of medicine anatomy dolls in Munchen Stadt Museum. Very unsettling, the stuff of horror movies and nightmares!

ChEc has been posting so many good photos lately, particularly the tryptychs - but I'd like to also mention this one, for its moody feel of the night in the rail yards

another one of ChEc's

Keith - transport 03, from the 2011 FSU Contest. This is how I often feel - running like mad, but getting nowhere!

fidget - Conistone, Warfedale. Lovely rural scene framing and tonality

collum - EMP building, Seattle. I liked the whole series, but this one won out for its dramatic impact

brainwood - couple. A classic boy-girl story

 

[lynnb]

not sure what happened with my links tonight - try again:
Vince Lupo - Untitled. A great find. I also thought the composition and tonality are excellent. My wife asked it this house had been picked up and dropped there by a tornado?

nzeeman - photo of medicine anatomy dolls in Munchen Stadt Museum. Very unsettling, the stuff of horror movies and nightmares!

There were an enormous number of excellent photographs this week. I tried to keep my picks down to a reasonable number and passed on a lot of great shots. Thank goodness that others stepped up and put them on the Picks of the Week. I hope that more members join in and add to these Monday picks each week. I think that the gallery and gallery picks is such a wonderful part of RFF and I enjoy it tremendously. Jim
