Are you kidding me? This photo is absolutely phenomenal and I would be ecstatic to call it mine! The multiple shades in this simply draw the viewer into the depths of it and the longer you stare at it the further you go and the harder it is to pull yourself out.

This is one of those pictures that is eerily beautiful. I simply couldn't look away, but I find the dark to be absolutely beautiful and really get upset when people look at things black and white. Some people like sunny days and some people like cloudy days, but all weather people say, "Tomorrow it's going to be a lovely day with the sun shining and temperatures in the 80s." I happen to love cloudy weather and hate temperatures over 70; I love the freezing cold.

You need to love this picture as much as everyone else obviously did; or at least try to see why they did and appreciate the fact that they did.

thank you for the compliment and the hint.

Thank you so much; was for me as well.

Thank you for commenting. I wasn't sure if it was okay to sent photos of family or not?
He is a happy little guy (at least most of the time).

Thank you so much.

the top one

Maybe this one is a better one?

I can't help myself; here they are again.

gift from my friend

Love how you framed the walking trail along the water.

Absolutely love the singing bird and the one with his wing out. Great captures; difficult to get.

What a great picture these two beautiful sleeping ladies made. Great Job.

I would say to be a professional D would be the right choice, but there are many who work as photographers where E is the appropriate choice.

Lucky you! You captured this little friend so beautifully; the shadows on the white fence make the picture so soft and warm in appearance.
