Here are my preferred photos for this week, I'll try to explain why. Of course just my own opinion which could be wrong...

Fiery Pegasos, Heidelberg by Mnutzer: I like this aggressive Pegasos because of the dynamic framing and the colours, the red mouth in the blue sky works very well.

A photo by Bushwick1234: Love the interesting framing which supports the confusion of the place, could be a metaphor of a part of our world...

morning catch, 1973: after many years hanging out at RFF I know that when it's about the sea Lynn is for sure the "maestro", his waves and his atmospheres are always full of soul. And I like the light in this old Kodachrome...

breakfast club by Keith: in the enlarged version it seem me that this sheep is really staring at the photographer! Love this eye contact!

Fresh Freeze by Rhl-oregon: nice framing, excellent B&W tones. And I have to add that I like model cars therefore I could not be insensible ...

Repeating Elements Blue by Doug: so simple, so well made with a little bit of vegetable presence in the human made cityscape...

Polaroid Land 250 by Raid: my friend Raid is since short arrived in the family of the Land Cameras user, which means he risks addition to...love this photo, the blurred red boy makes it visually interesting, bravo Raid, shoot more with your Land

Thank you very much for the encouraging words, Robert. You inspired me to try out using a Land camera after I saw your results here on RFF. The use of a Polaroid camera with few controls is a nice balance to using a digital Leica, say.
