    I really like #3 for the feel of the location. Also, you've captured a great expression in #1.

    Thanks a lot, kdo. #3 is one of my favorite shots ever, ever, so I'm glad I have some empathy from others!

    I dig #3 also, but it does look like the guy is afraid of getting his bike stolen lol.

    Ha, you know, I didn't even notice how it was so close to him.

    Personally, my favorite part of the picture is the shoes on the ground. You know someone has no more commitments to the day when they've removed their shoes and laid down on a park bench on the coast of Tel Aviv.

    They're all great. I think my favorites are 4, 3, 1, and 2 in that order. They are all well done and tell a story.

    If you took these in February and May they aren't eligible for the contest, however. Has to be a fresh (e.g. shot after the start of this contest round) image to be eligible.

    Oh, crap, haha, I took fresh as an entirely different meaning, and didn't read thoroughly enough. Fail.

    Oh well, I'll just leave these here, please do not consider them for the contest.

    Haha, I completely messed up on this contest. I didn't realize it was SOOC either. Probably, because I didn't know what SOOC meant. Now I know. Time to find something awesome to shoot.

    Oh well... live and learn, eh?

    Despite the "fresh" and "SOOC" confusion they are wonderful pictures. Each stands on it's own as a strong story and composition. FWIW, I'd say 3, 4, 1, 2.

    I've never gotten so much feedback on DGrin, much less for a bunch of inappropriately placed pictures. Thanks folks.
