Great images since I last looked!
Rich, your "snow cones" combines imagination, creativity. and a humor with an excellent composition and great handling of the challenging values.
Lorell, "Chevy Power" is awesome.
Grant, your hand-colored portrait superb.
Natalie, I love your still life of the lemons, berries, and flowers. A classic composition.
Rich, your hand-colored photo of the stand at the Midway Show displays the kind of judgement and restraint I wish I had. (I would have either colored the entire stand or just a few isolated spots, and neither wold have worked. But you nailed it by avoiding both extremes.
Natalie, you can't go wrong with a colorful bluebird.
Don - the subtle touch of a master on display (your church image in post #57).
I love the egg shot, Natalie. Lots of contrasts here (rich color vs B&W, round shape vs straight lines, the mottled blotches on the egg vs the alternating B&W shapes of the background, and different textures). Your image is a quiet gem.
Natalie: red church door is a winner!
Rich: your ballet slippers & music image is in a class by itself; understated and elegant, great composition, great value control.
Natalie; your "just for fun" image of the hen house, fowl, and farmer is a hoot! And I love the one of the aqua-colored car.
Grant, a colorful flag against grayscale is perfect for this topic.
I've taken few photos lately, so I went back at least 15 years, reworking a favorite photo of a Snowy Egret at the wetlands. He was on the rail of a footbridge, and he allowed me to get within 3 feet of him. The conversion to selective color was quick, and I like the result...

Don't blame me - I didn't vote for him!
