Shawna, you accidentally pasted the first link to one of your photos...I know you didn't mean to.
Yes, Angela's baby pics are pretty special. Two reasons I can think of: Poses are clever and unusual. And she does a mild high key treatment on them in Photoshop...that sure is what it looks like anyway. She has also added a touch of soft focus effect for that delicate glow. Nice way to do a baby pic.
I am trying to find several new artists (new to me that is) each day and see photos I've never seen. I am glad I took the time just now because I came up with some winners here. If you agree, please remember to give the ones you like your vote.
This snake photo by Carl speaks for itself. Love it!

Marvin Lee’s abstract has a lot to recommend it...the colors and the play of light. I even like the industrial look of the emergency light that goes with the railing. Beauty found in a basement!

These last two very different photos are both by Peter Beblo:
I did a doubletake on this architectural pic. Gotta love this one!

Ever notice how many pics of the sea are taken when the sky and water are blue? Nice, but gets boring. Here is proof that you needn’t put your camera away when the sun doesn’t shine. This one is verrry appealing to me...gray sky, gray ocean, gray bird, but just enough color to give it life and keep it out of the b/w category.
