Sure comes through to me - First, it is visually interesting just for the
shapes and composition. Next, where are the children?! It fits perfectly
with the rest of the intentionally sterile images. In fact, I think it's one
of the best, in that it is so devoid of life - and children.

Hi Adam,

While there are some real gems among your pictures (e.g. the zebra), there
are also some the inclusion of which I plainly do not understand, for
example the kindergarten. I think you need to edit tighter. It may well be
that this picture has some special significance for you, but it does not
come through to me when I look at it.

On a positive note, I find the layout of the gallery very attractive and
the images load very fast even on my slowish ISDN connection.
