597th Show & Tell Competition: Frames - WINNER

[vj4000]

It is so difficult to judge this contest with so many wonderful images submitted. Here are a few honorable mentions in no particular order.
Gilk Kopy's Female Red Wing Blackbird

Heffe's Venice

CJ Phipps'_serve's Endurance

ddecroix's Shanghai temple

Grompen's Petejolly

Lambsfeather's Rock of Cashel

Loved all images by Jola especially the creative Knotted willow




THIRD PLACE WINNER
Walter Otto Koenig's self portrait.
Beautiful and creative use of the reflection.


SECOND PLACE WINNER
Peter Schultz's Make up mirror.
Remarkable use of light and reflection in this lovely image of the artist.


FIRST PLACE WINNER
CIT_4_PITTS'S Ambassador Rat Goudie's Image. There is so much in this image, that caught my eye. His face is in perfect congruence to the heart shaped frame.
The outlines of the ears are symmetrical to the upper shape of frame, the little paw that delicately touches the lower part of frame,
the expressive eyes and nose and the whisker's attempting to fill the negative space. It's a perfect tribute to the little fella who lives on in the "heart".
Congratulations and many thanks for sharing his image here.
