There's a clear winner for me this week so I won't beat around the bush.
This week's winner is
FundyBrian with New Brunswick yard art.
I love the composition, the lines, textures and clarity.
With some b&w's you can see the colours that have been removed, this is an example of one of those for me.
Just really nice, well done.
Joint second I'm awarding to
sinnerjohn and
lkbside.
John's Museum refelction and Split are masterful and beautiful creations. When I first saw Split I thought that figure on the right was eating a baby, I had to look twice to see it's his beard.
Leslie's Russian pics are, as
sinnerjohn says, remarkable. Stark, moody, balanced, evocative and those steps with the landscape in the distance has such emotional depth for me.
Props to
deepop for Window Washer,
JillyG for Blue Moon and
terse for another solid week of quality submissions.
