GALLERY PICKS ... for the week ending May 18th 2009

[Keith]

Just the usual drill for a Monday with hopefully a few more than the usual supects!


Gallery Picks is an opportunity for you to post a heads up to what you have seen during the past seven days at RFF that you like.
There's no membership requirement, no criteria (except past seven days), no voting, no limit to the number of photos mentioned, and everybody mentioned is a winner.

Anybody can start the thread on a Monday.

Anybody can join in, it's a community event!

I'll start the ball rolling with two cracking images from Zorkicat.

 

[Jay Decker]

There was a lot of good work posted this week. Here are some of my favorites...

snausages2000:

Photographs that evoke an emotional response are special; this one touched something inside of me...

nksyoon:

This photograph gave me a sense of place, of almost being there, and is technically beautifully executed...

Bike Tourist:

Finding something visually interesting in the common place is very difficult; a few of the photos you posted this week demonstrate your skill at this difficult pursuit. Here's my favorite...

WDPictures:

Sometimes it is all about the color. This photo has color with texture...

petronius:

Love abstracts and you have wonderful sight for them. Here's my favorite of your photographs for this week...

Keith:

The Linda series is fun and creative, very well done. Have to admit that I am attracted to the woman... she has a ripeness, like perfectly ripened fruit, that appeals to me.

Please continue to present series work; I for one like the deeper exploration of a subject through series work.

Alex Krasotkin:

Wonderful image... has a little bit of everything, beauty, affection, sex, creative lighting.

Martini:

Your photos are visually interesting and always worth checking out...

Frank Petronio:

Three strong photos this week, all of them deserve to be recognized. Here's my favorite...

Thanks Jay ... much appreciated! 🙂

I also liked Frank Petronio's LF portrait (Erica) of the young lady with the tattoos glasses and piercings ... fascinating image.

"Thunder Over Barcelona" by yanidel

I'd like to know how yanidel gets those tones in his M8 images ... the subtlety is beautiful! 🙂
