Andrea is absolutely adorable.....
I love the way you shot this.....everything is framed so nicely....and that is you with the camera? Good to see you...
I like the softness of the photo and Andrea's expression.
Another good shot of your adventure and I am enjoying it. TFS.....:O)

You have made MY day with this post...Amazing what some people will do to "entertain" you. I have seen these models before....they are in a lot of our department stores..and it is amazing how they can remain so still as tho they are a statue. Guess he chose a good idea for he doesn't have to take time out for a bathroom break....
Love the guy in the background who seems to be saying...."What the ....????"
Funny shot and TFS......:o)

We are getting to share the trip you made. I agree with your thoughts on posting "as is" because if you started cropping and doing PP work, we would not see what you saw. I love the natural shot, and this man so happy and smiling, makes me smile....
Good POV and a crisp clear photo.
Looking forward to the next one.....:o)

Hi John...I don't think it is up to us judge this man who is begging. I see a wonderful photo of contrast between the "well fed" tourist and the beggar who seems painfully slender in those baggy clothes, and the soles of his shoes have walked many miles... Even the trash can is important here as you have a can of trash on one side of these girls and the beggar on the other side.....Real life on real streets and the imagine is haunting. I would have dropped some coins into his McDonald's cup also. Good for you.......:o)

Hi John....Just a minute to see your post and this is fantastic. The majestic mountains jutting up are awesome and I have sat and seen similiar sights flying over the great Rocky Mountains in our west....Beautiful "return home" composition for us. The frame is great!.......Welcome back. We missed you.....:o)

This reminds me of a country song by John Denver called "Take me home county roads".....I guess your use of sepea to give it an old feel makes me think of that. Love the winding road and the fact there are no cars on it....
A nice composition that evokes memories........:o)

Being at the right place at the right time with your camera is the key. And you were and brought this delightful composition to our pages of Treklens.
A fun and cute photo. Thanks for the series. I enjoyed it.....:o)

Nice shot of these two real horses....to continue your series of Love.... Cute comments. I like the textures in this photo....:o)

This is truly an amazing shot. A beautiful Macro,bright colors but how fortunate to capture two dragonflies in the heart pattern. (I have a fondness for hearts..)
Our insect friends are not willing subjects, so I commend you on this excellent composition.....:O)
PS: OK...PP work...excellent done.....I will leave my origianl comments for others to giggle about. I photograph nature at she is and assumed this was two dragonflies without thinking of your excellent PP skills... Kudos......

Thank you, Ruud, for the interesting information about the swan and its symbolism...much I was unaware of and found fascinating.
Again the heart, this time in the graceful neck of a swan and brought to us by the magic of your wizardry....(I must recheck the dragonfly!! Just assumed...bad thing....)
Again, a lovely composition about makes the world go 'round.....:o)
