    I was sure you'd pick one of the portrait shots - and I just LOVE how you handled it. Brings back great memories from Bali!

  5. The composition here is just right with the head scarf balancing out the off center face. Very cool as always!

  8. Great choice Linda! I bet it was a nice relief to paint a relatively peaceful face after all those mugs. Nice job! I'm light years behind the rest of the gang but I'm still in the race!
