fantastic! Well I am hiring you because if you can make a sewer grate look wonderful you can maybe do something with me.

This one is very good. You really focused on the abstraction and left enough texture and detail to keep it interesting. Wnen I first looked, I thought of a fork covered in chocolate.

Me too, a chocolate covered fork with bits of English toffee. Mmm. Looked again, oh no. Muddy water. Cool photo.
We have streams and rivers here…right down the middle of the roads and into people’s basements in Saratoga Springs, Utah. Lots of sandbagging the last few days.

I really like how you’ve captured the water here – there is a really interesting mix of soft and sharp detail.

I also thought this was chocolate with hazelnuts…

This is one of the more unusual photos I’ve seen in a long time! I love it when something so overlooked is brought to our attention – and that it is a street drain, usually quite ugly, transformed into something lovely.

This is always seen after a heavy rain, how many will notice, yes YOU (well me too I think
) LOVE it.
