This is elegant beauty. Incredible. The three simple main colors of brown, light brown, and white.... and then the way the light is spilling down the path after the person... the amazing textures, soft and scratched at the same time... this is exquisite!

This is one very cool picture. I don't get the feeling of melancholy from it. Maybe if the woman was in the forefront and I could make out her facial expression it would. The way you composed it gives it a ghostly feel that leads you into your own thoughts instead of being empathetic to the woman. I love it.

I love this photo - very very excellent Courtenay!

You have an exceptional eye, beyond that though you have exceptional vision. I love the moods that your photos bring out, you are well beyond good.

beautiful shot, though strange in that the size of the woman doesn't seem to match the photo. Imported from another image? Gorgeous though.
