i like how one eye on the statue seems to be looking at the woman.. ;) almost as if it is appraising her..

WOW! What a beautiful sky. the contrast between the almost grayscale ice and bridge and the crystal blue sky is stunning. Well done to be there and capture the scene.
You composition is also quite good.
One small problem that i do have though is the ammount of digital noise that is present in the sky. I know that sony cameras have a small issue with noise. I would recommend running the photo through a noise reduction program before posting next time.
But aside from the noise issue this is a stunning photo.

Hi An
Curious perspective. Once again the blue of the car makes this shot for me. Its so clear and pale yet vibrant at the same time.
nice stuff.

Nice macro of this flower.
i dont knwo whether the unfocused look is intentional or not but it gives the photo a very nice dream like quality.
Its quite pretty.
the only thing that i wold have tried to do for this one would be to try and get the flower really sharp and leave that mist and blurry misty effect for the background.
otherwise i like it a lot.
Well done.

Nice work Jenny. :)
If there is one thing that i miss the most about home is Algonquin park.
Thank you for bringing me back to it.

What a great moment to capture.
Monkeys always amaze me with their human like actions and abilities.
The only thing i would have done to this photo would have been to crop away the light overexposed portion of the background to really bring out the monkey and keep the focus on it. other wise neat shot.

Hi HLL
absolutly beautiful shot of the woman and the church.
The play of light across the photo and onto the woman is beautiful. But its the deep shadows that i like the best.

(side note) I discovered your photo because i happened to log on to TE while at a computer cafe here in HCMC and when i typed up the page it opened with your account still open. You really should be more careful about logging off so that someone doesnt spoil your work.

Hey Ben
how was mongolia?
It the rest of it was anything like this then it was probably fantastic.
It was good to see Bob here, we tore the place up as well as we could. well as long as he wasnt wasted sick on my sofa.
Great shot. nice tones. and a wonderful gradient of soft colours.
nice
