Barbara, I love your work! Especially those which are bravely abstract, like Industrial Dreaming and At Evening. Though as this Parade shows, you have a quite a range of styles and subjects using the natural world as your inspiration. You have such a wonderful sense for composition, colour and texture.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for continuing to share your images with us here.
Congratulations on being chosen!

A lovely selection of images! I always find your images to be top quality and at present I'm really taken by 'Industrial Dreaming' which I must have missed previously. You have a great way with water and reflections and it's ususally these that I'm most drawn to. Keep up the good work! David

Your images tend more towards the abstract shape and form of nature and are distinctly different. My favourite today is "PINE MEADOW NOVEMBER" but that could well change tomorrow.

You have a very distinctive style, Barbara - often seeing things that others would pass by. I think "Winter's Bite" is my favourite.

I too like Winter's Bite - I like 'em all, really - but my current favorite is probably INDUSTRIAL DREAMING. I won't say that the shapes and colors form a harmonious whole because part of its appeal is in its disharmony. Of course, tomorrow I could be in the mood for something a bit quieter or less abstract. Fact is that I would like any of these hanging on my wall.

Well, as you know I adore your images Barbara! So brave and you look at the world in such a different way. I can't really choose a favourite but if I was forced to I would say-from this selection alone-Winter's Bite. I also find your titles intriguing!

I like the more nature related shots. STARTING OUT IN THE MORNING Great color, and use of soft focus. PINE MEADOW NOVEMBER - I love the colors and the silky water. I have never been able to capture a shot like that yet. WINTER'S BITE Great found image!
