Another great use of off-center visual tension in the overall composition, combined with the vibrancy of the red against the monotone of the water is powerful.

			<description><![CDATA["Building 02b" by Danny Bourque
A Katrina bathroom, New Orleans
Danny has a big series of these HDR photos. I like this one for its small-scale reminder of the large-scale disaster that struck our region here in south Louisiana.

Old picture, new treatment.
Nothing drastic, just a slight refinement of detail and color...
I love the color and lighting here, and the immediacy of the nearer gull. You can feel them swirling around, wanting to tilt your head back to see them as you view this image.

This is from a series of wonderful black and white images, many of them closeups that create abstractions out of the ordinary.

Beautiful, soft, moody photo from Duarja. His images all have a dreamlike consistency to them that I think is powerful.

			<description><![CDATA["Chambord" by Mathieu GUY

French Renaissance palace from central France. I like the use of refection and the off-center composition creates interesting tension in the space.
