Your should really make this into a flash or a video. Scrolling to each picture really takes away from their individual effect.
Just a suggestion

Dear Reader,

You are certainly right about it. However, the advice was not meant to provoke someone for copyrights infringement.

Furthermore, I really appreciate your positive feedback. It certainly will allow us to think before saying something like that.

I found myself looking, almost staring into the eyes of the subjects in the photos as if I was face to face with the living person. As if I could see there souls.

Wow. As a writer seeing those pictures has sparked a thousand stories. I felt like at each image I could create an entire world. There was so much depth and feeling in the images. The swirl of emotions that come through each pose, each stare, the look of thier skin, the light on their faces. BRAVO!!!! I am inspired.

Not a lot of candid emotion in these shots. They are well composed shots though. But mostly blank expressions or posed expressions.

Emotions is the key to non-verbal communication among both humans and animals. Thanks for the remarkable photography.
