you have many beautifull pictures. It's hard to choose. I like the subtle colours in this one, and the athmosphere of the dreamlike walk on the beach. Congratulations!

Beautifull !!! the light, the intimacy, the baskets hanging on the ceiling. Horizontal and vertical lines of the interior. The diagonal of the sunrays. Gorgeous painting, euh..., photograph.

Beautiful colors! Same for the compostion! It's like rivers of sand flowing into the sky. Probably on 99% of all pictures taken at lake Louise, you can see just a lake. Here we see endless and timeless turqoise, bordered by flowing rivers of water and sand which time has given beautiful variations of green and beige.

I think it does look better in B&W indeed. Look at this version, my attention is drawn towrds the faces and their expressions and is not distracted by the colours and the quality of the clothes. Because in this subject, colours nad clothes do not add to the meaning of the picture. Portrait very often is better in B&W

a perfect capture of the intensity of the buskashi game. I wish I was there! And then you pushed the button at the right moment !

very strange association: a white sunny beach with turquoise water and this old Cuban man. What a contrast with the traditional tourist brochures. This picture is a real eye-opener!

some pictures are nice because the subject itself is beautiful. Being on the right spot, pushing the button, that's it. This picture on the contrary is beautifull because of the composition, the athmosphere of humid clouds. You observed this otherwise quite simple landscape very well !!! and you made a beautiful picture of this small road where many have passed without noticing the beauty that lays in this picture?

You have very beautiful pictures. Other picture seem te collect more points then this one. Is it because pictures of women and children are more popular then men???
But here I like these pastel colours and the very relaxed posture of this man. My eye follows the arm until it reaches this gracious hand against the blue wall. Perfect light ! Gorgeous!

Good light! It's not always easy to have the right exposure, when the sun is shining bright. You captured beautifully the colors, the shirt matching te buildings, all this with intense sunshine. Very nice!
