Hi Korkut,
A nice bold one with those bright yellow figures. Funny how somebody has painted faces on them :-) I love how they are in the bottom corner of the composition and their real life counterparts are exiting through the top opposite corner. Nice.

Hi Demet,
Great mood with those clouds swirling over Angkor and the blue and golden colours emerging from the dark surroundings. Maybe it would have been nice for your composition with a bit less black on the bottom I find the space there too empty. Hope you don't mind, I have tried a small workshop.

Hi Jean Yves,
I really love lattice work, it is so intricate and beautiful. Here it is lovely with some stained glass included. Nice that the windows start in the corner of your composition and our eyes follow the detail through right to around the bend.

Hi André,
You know how to find good contrasts and here is a fine example with the green tea and red dress. The winding pathway is a must to bring us in and up to the lady where our eyes rest and focus on her essential presence before moving on to the trees beyond, without her your shot would not be nearly as interesting. The diagonal line of the hill adds to the composition too.
See you soon ;-)

Hi Albrecht,
Lovely details on each level and I like with your angle of view how the pillars and arches become smaller and samller as they go up. A nice play with the vertical lines of the pillars and the horizontal lines of detail inbetween.

Hi Helmut,
I like misty scenes, I find they always have an air of mystery about them. Nice here how the trees with different coloured foliage peep through the mist and I like that you have three distinct layers in the image creating good depth.

Hi Eric,
A beautiful landcspae with the contrast of the orange rusty colour of the earth and the blue sky. Love that streak of cloud stretching accross the sky and the mountain in the distance after all that flat ground.

Hi Ari,
I find this quite an interestiung and expressive portrait. I like the limited light just illuminating enough for us to see her expression and some nice colour and detail on her clothing. Nice that you have her from the side too. Bagus.

Hi Takero,
I like that you show us some of the traditional dress in your images, and she has a nice outfit on, bright and full of detail. I love her smile and the umbrealla makes a nice background and fills up the frame well.

Hi Claude,
It's so beautiful with that sliver of purple light hitting the snowy peaks. It must have been lovely to actually be standing there and watching the sun coming up and the changing colours.
Regards
Wanda
