Week 35 of 2010

Top honors this week again going to .I Travel East. My favorite amongst the photos is the one with the dude against the huge sky.
.I Travel East has been consistently in the Top 20 for the past few weeks - looking at the All Time Greats, looks like .I Travel East has moved up to the 13th spot, right after Imapix! Congratulations!!

Special mention this week goes out to Cate, who brings us visions of ancient Greece, with the post processing capturing the essence of antiquity perfectly.
The texture and overlays are exceptional, and the painstaking masking of certain features in the images really makes them pop!

To compensate for the desaturated images that seem quite popular, we have JoeyRamone with an explosion of color.

Great assortment of photos in the Top 20 this week as usual. Until next week - keep snapping!

Week 34 of 2010 - Tomato!

Top honors this week go to .I Travel East with some great photos that emphasize a subdued palette and minimalist composition.

The interesting meme for this week comes from flydime, who brings us images from Buñol in the Valencia region of Spain. Apparently the town-folk get rid of tons of over-ripe tomatoes by having the biggest baddest food fight of them all! 

Its a great photo stream. All the while looking through it, the only thought in my mind was about the poor sod that would have to clean up after this mess! Bet the walls take a beating, and most laundry detergent advertisements have me convinced about the treacherous nature of tomato stains!
