    i've said it before, many times - i love your "neck of the woods" :D
    the moodiness of the second-to-last shot is really cool.

    nice set!

    Very nice Yuri. I especially like the 2nd one - I can read a huge story into it...

    Yuri, I usually like to give detailed critiques along with some suggestions. But your work often seems perfect and I have nothing to add but applause. I especially like this one:

    2866.jpg

    I suppose I do have one suggestion. I love your deep rich shadows, but perhaps you could hold a little more detail there? One way to do t his is to work in CMYK and steepen and then sharpen the K curve a lot. There are a lot of twists on this technique and I'm happy to help with details if you want. Just let me know.

    But this is a nit. Mostly I'm floored by these.
    If not now, when?

    The Lonley Boat
    Great captures Yuri.

    I also like the story being told with #2; one boat being used and the other wating for a friend to take her out.
