Thanks guys.

I'd considered BW for this, as you see I BWed the other and toned the meditation. On this, I just really liked the way the richness of the deep red and how it worked with his skin tones, and figured I might as well go for the red since the others weren't. :) ~ Lonnit

I like this one best also, but I would prefer it in black and white...

Nice use of the frame on this one.

I like this the best of the 3 shots Lonnit. The composition is great and I like the more natural looking pose - nice color too. CJ

Thank you, Sharon & Vikas. :)

Michael,
Thank you. Does that mean I'm screwing myself come voting time? LOL! ~ Lonnit

Well thought out and beautifully composed, lonnit! Good work - as usual! ~Sharon

Yup, have to say I love this one of the three you have posted Lonnit, the pose, the eye contact and the composition really work beautifully in this.

Cheers, Vikas.

Well, I want to stand firm that "Boys Squared" is my favorite of the three but this one is indeed giving "Boys Squared" a run for its money. Nice work. -Michael

Thanks, Phil. Yes, intentional, of course - FINALLY! LOL! ~ Lonnit

I'm with Jim on this one, definitely my preferred of the 3 (not that the other 2 are bad, you understand).
I particularly like the way his legs are parallel to the edge of the frame (intentional I'm sure).

You mean any comments before yours? LOL! Well, I only put it up late last night, so maybe not too many people have seen it yet. Hmmm... no, I see it's had 29 visitors. Well, then, maybe it's b/c of my large opinions - I'm very verbal and um, generous with my critiques, so maybe there are too many people ticked off at me who don't want to return a favorable comment after I've given any negativity in my review. We do know there's at least one chump who just trashes my stuff and won't sign his/her name. They did it on one of the pix that I'd thrown in here prior to getting to shoot for the challenge. My only regret in removing that image was that I wouldn't want that jerk to think I removed it b/c of the comment. I'd only thrown that series in b/c they fit the theme and happened to be taken during the challenge period. This series was shot specifically for the challenge.

Thanks for commenting! :) ~ Lonnit

You know, as much as I like "Boys Squared", I think this is as good or better. I think I like seeing the eyes in this one and the pose and lighting are superb. Seeing the true color of the background is very nice too. It does compliment Sqeak and his pants. I'm surprised this hasn't gotten a lot more comments! Jim H.
