Thanks to porktaco for mentioning this Paris shot by TennesseeJones - wonderful, reminds me of Elliott Erwitt!

Thankyou to Paul, Keith, porktaco and jcrutcher. I have already said this in a reply to one of my gallery comments but I'll say it again: Receiving recognition of my images is such a positively rewarding thing on so many levels and mixing it amongst the collective brilliance on this forum is the single best thing I have done to improve my own photography.

Here's just a few but there's so many more.

Paulfitz76 - Great use of colour and a beautiful mood.

Thanks so much Paolo! She's finally becoming a willing model

 

[Ezzie]

Thanks Jim, Richard and Lynn. You are all too kind.

A particularly good week for dreamy land and cityscapes. My favourites reflect this.

Enlo: Sunset (A perfect contre-jour shot, and I love how the sun illuminates the street lights)

Tony Pio: Home (To quote Richard, a pastoral lusciousness unsurpassed, could have been a scene from Bertolucci´s 1900)

Obwong: Triangle (the shapes and lines, the shadows, the textures, the subject material: All nice)

Lynnb; Beach at nigh #3 (Lynn seems to find endless possibilities to be explored on this beach, well done) (Posted the flickr version, it deserves it)

I like the lush dark tones and the contrast of the light flower blossom.

Thank you, Shac for mentioning my picture! I see work I admire every week on this site and just discovered these threads - I'll be participating as soon as I figure out how to paste in the images I like.
