These days, especially when travelling, I don't always have much time to view all the PESOs (but a large portion), and commenting is even more problematic.
This photo caught my eye in two ways: First, it is rather subtle, like some watercolor paintings, with a very interesting combination and juxtaposition of the almost monotone (albeit toned) feature. I like it. (And if I were to print it I'd try watercolor paper. I would consider minimalistic frame or alternatively, I'd print on one of those fancy/funky papers that have some texture (but not canvas), or just on watercolor paper with the mask producing wavy edges.) Second, I liked simplicity, but something was bothering my eye, especially in the Flickr lightbox presentation (with the black background). After seeing it against the standard white background of Flickr, I liked it better, but then I appreciated it better against the black background. So, I cannot figure out what exactly bothers me in the lightbox presentation (as linked). Maybe it's just the size that is a bit too small that way. However, and this is different, the two horizontal streaks at the top left, just above the most left pod, do distract me. In addition to their a bit rough texture, they go against the preferential vertical lines in a "metal scribe on glass" sound way.
