Thank you Richard, Icebear and Lynn.

I may just go through my choices one at a time, post at a time this week. I've noticed Tony always does it this way and I've come to really like it.

First by Dotur ... This is a very strong portrait of a wonderful face ... I feel like I want to get to know this man and the way the Delta 3200 film renders this is so appropriate.

 

[Keith]

Mcary ... I skipped over this initially as the thumbnail doesn't really do it justice. I'm a little bothered by all the vacant space below her but it's hard to imagine how to shoot it differently. Her smooth form amongst such decay and harshness is superbly handled IMO. The pose is excellent and the black and white tones are perfect for me.

I love this image. There is a tension in it for me. It's equal parts charming and sad. The young girl curious about everything that is beautiful about growing into a woman, and perhaps also a sad image because she is simultaneously being sold a lie that she isn't beautiful without all of this "stuff". Of course, the truth that the picture tells me is that she is already beautiful.

Thanks Rohan.

Angelog ... I love the checkerplate door, I instantly want to know what may be behind it becuase it is sealed so tightly!
