This one stopped me flat, before seeing what award it did get. Wonderful shot.
No surprise it won that one.
Luca Zanoni24-Jan-2007 22:31
Love it. v
Guest 21-Jan-2007 18:18
A little late for my vote, but this image deserves the award. We don't see hats anymore in the US (except perhaps in Mennonite communities), so this is a bit of geographic history.

This is a strong one. Reminds me of a famous b/w photo of nuns, leaving a church, shot from above; their white triangular hats creating a compelling pattern.

Twas on a Holy Thursday their innocent faces clean
The children walking two & two in red & blue & green
Grey headed beadles walkd before with wands as white as snow
Till into the high dome of Pauls they like Thames waters flow

pingupingu02-May-2006 17:44

Guest 02-May-2006 14:24
Reminds me Japan. Wonderful job, Sheila!
Guest 18-Apr-2006 18:40
Brilliant! For me, the one girl looking down really makes the shot. I could see this entitled "Individuality" or something. Very well done.

You must have gotten SO excited a the visual possibilities, lol! You are one of my favorite artists! As soon as this photo popped up, I was thinking "Oh! Look! Look! Look what Sheila's done now!" This is not a site we'd see here. I am green with envy, and you have all those beautiful birds, too!
