  • looking for the best picture

    shmuly brafman great shot and i love the meaning of your picture

  • a good eye

    i love the picture of the flower it brings out a great and up lifting meaning

  • AMAZED

    I’m very impressed by Shmuly Brafman’s pictures,

    in part 1. The picture of the Jew praying in the forest just grabbed my heart and inspired me very deeply which is the theme. The picture of the Jew praying is different and inspiring because the idea of the man praying alone in the forest wrapped in a Tallis having his private with G-D beseeching on his family’s behalf, the old and yellow tallis shows that it’s soaked with tears and it’s been through allot of usage, the sun shining through the trees. the composition is great, as the sun rises in the early morning, and the caption is dead on.

    In part 2. The radiant smile on the child’s face so pure and so innocent celebrating his birth day with his Friends. The moment was captured so beautifully, and is exposed perfectly. And the caption is uplifting to any reader that’s feeling down. I quote “Birth is G-d’s way of telling you: You matter”. Indeed good news.

    In part 3 . “There are no victories with out battle no peaks without valleys and no roses with out thorns”. that caption says it all it sums up life in one sentence, and the caption fit’s in perfectly with the picture. The rose a vibrant orange with the water drops on the petal’s, the thorns clearly visible and just a great shot.

    Over here Judges. Is the deserving winner, from his initiall subbmisoin to the picture of the rose he as proven himself to be the best phographer.
