>Judging from the total lack of response to my week 4 posting,

I looked at them, but they didn't really do anything for me.  If you hadn't
set my expectations so high with your scenes by the lake and then your
graphic shopping carts, maybe I'd have appreciated the barber more.  :)

One comment in looking at your thumbnails (I wanted to make sure that the
ones I remembered your showing us were actually from you <grin>), it looks
like you're crucifying the barber.  There's a cross going right through the
poor chap's head.  He doesn't look like he's enjoying that very much,
either.

I'm having a hard time deciding on a focal point.  It seems like it should
be the cat, but there isn't enough shadow detail in his face to look at.  If
it is supposed to be the cat, I'd suggest shooting from his level.  Cat rule
#1...never look down on them.  They're higher ranked than us, and it is our
privilege to share their world.  :)

This is my favorite from this week.  Captures my attention.  Don't know
whether the candle is being taken or replaced.  But there's something
happening, and you captured it.  I like.
