1 and 2 are my favorite.

1 is brilliant.

 

[JohnMF]

definately some interesting shots there

Good stuff! i like 1, 2, 3 and 4.. just not too fond of 5.. but the first 4 are great.

 

[Robert Kaleta]

Thanks for your comments guys.

K_Pugh: It's going to sound ridiculous but i've to agree with you. I even know what i don't like about 5. There's not enough space above the girl which forces my eyes to look down and i lose interest in the subject.

I agree about nr 5, the white paper on the ground (below) is also distracting.

Nr 1 and 2 are great. I really like them

yeah just something not quite right about the 5th, but 3 and 4 are growing on me even further, couldn't be better!

Vivienne: Thank you:] I was going to clone it out, but then i thought "what would Henri Cartier Bresson do?" and i decided to leave it.

K_Pugh: What i like about 3 is how the girl looks at you. I hadn't noticed it when i took it and i almost got rid of it.

 

[K_Pugh]

ha! yeah, you tend to get that a lot.. just yesterday i developed a film from the streets of glasgow and one one frame i noticed two boys looking at me, they look like twins, too... didn't notice when taking the photo.

Definatly #1 that is a trick shot

I am all about number 3 and 4.
The fact that the girl looks at you and you being so low. It all works out.
For number 4 i just really like the depth of field combined with the vigneting and the subject. Usually i am not a big fan of vigneting, but in this case it works!

These are great, I like 3. Were you "shooting from the hip"?

 

[Robert Kaleta]

Bigpopa, deudeu: Thank you.

AverageJoe: nope. I just sat down on the ground. It gives you a nicer perspective.
