From the new City Garden park in downtown St. Louis. I shot this on the Scott Kelby Worldwide Photo Walk a few Saturdays ago.

    Hi Jeff,

    This is really well done. Very interesting.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    I like the details and texture of the head in contrast with the smooth, reflective high-rise building.

    That's a different kind of sculpture. I like how you took this photo. BW works really good with this kind of photo thumb.gif

    Howdy Jeff,

    Really Like this one, great perspective and point of view, then the subject matter with the great background makes this a very powerful image.

    The B&W post processing is just right for this one, and makes the sharpness of the fine details really jump out.

    Very nicely done, I think this is one of my Favorites of yours!!!
    Take care,

    Craig

    Thanks, everyone. I appreciate the comments. The more I look at this, the more disappointed I am with the composition. I think I coulda done better there.

    Now that's different rolleyes1.gif

    The IR has brought out a lot of the texture in the Head.

    I like it clap.gif .... Skippy :D

    Well done interesting composition. Very nice PP. I also like the
    uniformity of the buildings inward tilting lines both left and right sides.
