Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

I love your unique perspective and the relational dimension your images have. I think you need to publish your work if it hasn't already been.

Thanks for your appreciation but I just made pictures for my pleasure, not for money...
Perhaps It's a mistake...

jaco - as ever your images are superb!
unique vision and execution in may shots - heck i only have to look at my camera bag in a gallery and some secuity bod tells me off, let alone having time to get down low with it.........
gotta love the 'statue of liberty' though - didnt know they had fitted her with sunglasses these days......

Instead of the more usual Empire State Building type pics you manage to take your camera to ground zero and give us a more personal and unique view of a great city - superb

Great pics Jaco.
Love the marathon man and subway pics. The last landscape pic is definitely from a different perspective.
