Mother & Son Reunion by nmsmith

johindes: How beautiful this is, made me tear up I have to say. A very powerful image indeed, and for me a most excellent entry to the contest. So glad he is home safe xxx

twinkel: I'm a mom and I can feel her emotions to have her son back in her arms, safe and well!

You have captured that moment very well and the B/W adds those emotions real good :o)

Good luck in the contest.

4th place
Remnants of a Bygone Era by snapshooter87

quickshot: I like the black and white even more than "Ghost Station", the color version, Doug. However, even though I know I'm wrong because you've explained why I'm wrong I still think the balance is off. I'll quote from my comment on "Ghost Station".

"It's just me but I think I would have liked the shot a little more if you had cropped out the stagecoach on the right and had the building not centered."

The Last Of The Mohicans by Jimbobedsel

SEFA: Interesting and very nice looking photo. It almost looks as if the figure was created of smoke. Great entry for the contest.
Good luck!

danika: Very creative work, Jim. The effect gives the images a sense of mystery. Best wishes in the contest.
