Gallery Picks for the week ending MAY 19, 2014

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.
If someone pick's your photo, do the thread a favor and find one from the last 7 days you like too. Spread the wealth!

I hope I get this right. I've never figured out how to do this before but I owe it to the community to participate since I have been the beneficiary of much kindness from many of you and been inspired by much of your work.

Lynnb's wonderful environmental photo will be the first.

I loved Michael's wonderful street portrait. Like a character out of Monty Python, or The Hithchhiker's Guide

This photo reminded me of those special memories of parenthood. Nothing like a little one snuggling asleep against your body..

two from Adam's series on Barton Creek in Austin, TX. There's an intimacy in Adam's photographs which I like.

Robert's superb colour photograph is my favourite colour shot this week, it compares well with colour work from Saul Leiter and William Allard IMHO

My favourite bw shot was Richard's street portrait of three generations of French ladies, taken with his Monochrom. Superb.

I'm continuing to enjoy Luigi's Notes from the road series. In this shot I liked how the grass stems echo the power utility pylons. An interesting series.

very close for my favourite bw shot of the week is this landscape of the Pacific coast from news shooter. Spectacular, and beautiful. I liked the colour picture taken nearby almost as much.

I thought Mike's tasteful nude was both beautiful and unusual.
