I won't say which photo I think is 'best' as they work very well together to tell a captivating story, as well as being capable of standing on their own to tell their mini-stories of those moments in time.I really am impressed and appreciate your selection of simple backgrounds that complement the images both in terms of color as well as contrasting textures. The school image with the teacher and student with the globe is a wonderful example of using all elements within the frame to their up-most! And yup, I'm reading your book. :) Excellent work, David!

I love the picture of the little girl picking the fruit. The color of her scarf being the same as the fruit in her hand brings a nice balance to the image. Regarding your comment about letting the cat out of the bag, are we to assume that book number three is about the inner geek? You could call it Geek Mongers, or Gear Mongers. What do you think? David,

Maybe some day I will have enough equipment to go on one of these trips. They seem a little daunting but they do intrigue me. Thanks for showing them to us. Cate David,

Some really kind words in there. Funny how our work evolves yet we barely notice it. Last night I was updating my portfolio and suddenly see a real arc in the way my images have changed.Dave – I have a pretty standard post-processing routine for these images, all in LR. Basically I bring the blacks and whites just to the edge of clipping, steepen the tone curve, and add some vignetting. That’s about it, though it’s a preset now so I’ve forgotten some of the tweaks. Guess you’ll have to wait for book number three. Oh, there I’ve gone and let the cat out of the bag and done it in comments where no one will see it :-) Thanks, folks.

My favourite is the image of the two girls with goats - walking along the grass, looking at each other and laughing. Many components of a great shot there - emotion, movement, light composition, colour - all real solid. Thanks for sharing mate! Nice work Dave!
