You have an eye that goes beyond pixels on paper, able to stir the emotions in a deep and meaningful way....

Great set, Steve, but the first shot takes it. Being B&W could not have to do with it, right? Just kidding. The composition of the first shot, and the atmosphere/ mood created by the B&W presentation really hit home for me. Nicely done!
