| How did I stumble uponthis picture, I don't know but it open multi memory doors that melted my heart. A well felt picture. They don't make gentlemen like that nowadays. Are you still participating this year?° |

This is a wonderful image with deep rich tones and a fantastic warm feel to it. Your model is perfect and looks quite at home in the warm red hue of your lighting. A wonderful moment that you both should be proud of. It is a shame that 22 people have a hard time seeing a truely fantastic image.
Congratulations on the ribbon. Great work. |

| Congratulations on another wonderful finish and well deserved ribbon. Maybe the back drop's slight wrinkles put off some of the 4-ers... but who will ever know? |

| On first glance I thought this might be a little dark, but it's really beautiful. Perhaps the best in show; hopefully will "ribbon" this round. A clear 10 from me! |
