Hi snd thanks to everyone for the helpful comments..especially graphicfunk! In actual fact this shot was one of about five taken on the bus when the subject was totally engrossed in his study and had no idea he was being shot! Everyone else on the rows infont and behind me were well aware of my clicking!! |

A fine image that was not acknowledged by the voters. The two ones and the 4 twos speak of voters who may have considered this image a threat. No matter the background this image is at least a 6. I voted it 10 because it is a real life capture and notice how calm your senses become when the eyes scan the image from the green distraction and into the heart of the image which is the subject imparting the conviction of faith and permeating the air with a soothing solace. Possibly the most underrated image in a b.e. challenge! The image of the subject has the feel of a fine oil painting. The green in the background may distract the casual viewer, but the subject represents the spiritual and the background the down to earth mundane distractive world. It is this contrast that gives the image that Ying-Yang delivery. |

An endearing character capture done to perfection! Another bump for great quality. Here again! Judicious voting is not always easy. Thought about this image while having supper and made a point to come back and register my full ten. May the votes be with you! |

This is one of the best pictures I have ever seen: philosophical, serene and outstanding quality. I love that one can even see the different colour in his hair. |

Wonderful portrait. I spent a lot of time with it. It seems more about the beard than the hat, but the hat is definitely key to the character. |
