CURTIS WEHRFRITZ As Above, So Below, Andrea. This photograph would be added to my show for its surreal quality. It is difficult to determine where the woman ends and the bird begins. Her hair appears to be flowing along with the birds wings. The sepia tones give it a unique look. 
ERIN SPENCER Untitled 2001 (Self-portrait series/Bedroom #17). I went back to past issues to obtain additional photographs because I wasn’t fond of the others recently submitted. This picture immediately drew my eyes to the socks. Reminding me of both socks worn by clowns as well as Ronald McDonald. The use of the shiny skirt and slippers offset the whimsical feel of the striped socks. It feels like a fun picture to me.

ELLEN PUCCIARELLI Angel In Soho, London. I was immediately drawn to this photograph because of the wings. My youngest daughter was very fond of wings when she was little and this photograph instantly brought a smile to my face remembering. The wings are so out of place in the middle of the city that I believe it allows the observer to create a story in their own mind of what the significance of the wings are.
Francis A. Willey, Medea. I would present this photograph in my show because of the ethereal feel of the model. It is playful with her showing only one eye, the 2 leaves in the vase and the background. It has a light energy and feeling of surprise and playfulness.
TERESA FLOWERS Teresa from the Polaroid Series As a general rule I am not drawn to nude photos but I like the placement of her body with her arms above her head, her look of shyness and sullenness. I also like the fact that she is a full figured model and not rail thin as magazines often use, creating a true photograph of what women truly look like in real life.
MONICA DENEVAN Matador, Burma, 2003 This photograph is titled “Matador” but instead of being a man urging a bull on, it appears to me as if the blanket he is holding up is being used as a sail to propel the boat. What I like about this photo is that it can be interpreted in many different ways. I like the use of wind with the water and boat that allows one to create many stories.
Nicola Wenman. Passage. I chose this photograph because it reminds me of the woods I grew up playing in when I was younger. It reminds me of innocence and memories with family and friends. The hands showing through the tree adds mystery to the overall effect; or could be those of a child playing hide and seek and waiting to be found.
