Gallery picks for the week ending March 14, 2011

[lynnb]

Thank you Jim and Luigi!

Israel_Alanis – some expressions
Striking subject expression, well framed, I like the tonality and DOF too

mto’brien – Rachel
I just had to smile at this

Zockson – On the Beach
A striking image

fraley – downtown 15
a great street shot – a story with an interesting main character and lots of detail to keep the eye interested.

ChEc – L1006183
Sometimes the evidence of homelessness is subtle and easily missed

L1006103
I kept getting drawn in by the light and tonality in this photo

Frank Version Two – Melody
Reminds me of Audrey Hepburn – the same fragility in the eyes. Love the tonality.

Mcary – Christina and Wyatt
The body language and emotion here is very beautiful

Petronius
Great use of specular highlights in another commanding study in light and shade

Jbielikowski – horses in woods
Unusual and beautiful

semrich – Tea and a Smoke
interesting character study and I wish I could do tonality like this

nonot
scary when you think about it, and graphically very strong

Wildly overworked the past two weeks, I've had almost no time to peruse the gallery, so it's a great treat to see all these great images everyone has picked. Gotta get back to it soon so I can make my own picks and honor all this talent. But, for now, I just have say everything posted to the thread this week is superb. Great, beautiful, provocative, inspirational work. Kudos to everyone.
