Now, I invite you to take a look with me, at 10 of my favorites Under my weekly spotlight





I can imagine an old boat, almost soaking in the water.
I can imagine that, but I can't see that...
That's the great effect of good photography.

Wonderful details in this landscape shot.
The depth is awesome, almost 3D due to the haze and lighting.

We all have seen water in long exposures.. this is different. The black surroundings of the white water and the composition.. it works so well!

And a more "classic" use of the waterfall long exposure. The composition here makes the difference. Beautiful landscape and the balance makes the waterfall stick out to glorify the frame.

This one is recommended not because it's such a great picture, but because of the panorma technique and because the description and the Info =kidscruff shares about the technique. Something new to learn is always nice.

The color combination is overwelming and it's nature's art by definition. It's minimal, abstractic, well composed, and very well metered. I can imagine this framed on my wall.

Watching the veautiful sunset, in the RAW beauty of nature. The composition and the trail helps me imagine myself as that tracker, awed by the amazing powers of nature.

Wonderful Urban work.
So ordinary, yet a unique way to look at it.
A game of light, shadow, and composition. Almost an abstract.

Dynamic, colorful, abstract, balanced. A lot of beauty and clever photography, all in one frame.

WTF... hard to figure out what makes this frame look this way.
It looks like a a macro shot inside a vein, or something like that, and yet in closer look it's easy to realize these are balloons. So these are what 1500 balloons look like... Bravo!
