I thought we should have a thread where we can post photos that happened to catch our fancy. Just anything that caught your attention, made you feel sad or happy or poignant -- or fascinated you for whatever reason.


Here's one that I recently came across:

It's called "The Lone Commuter" and it's from a 1940 issue of Popular Photography.

This one,"Stranger In The Fog," was the winner of a 2008 photoblog award.

I love moody pics like these.

wow those are interesting photos indeed. Looks almost like they're
painted, aren't they?

I like black and white photos, they are so much more expressive.

I agree, CJ. As joyous as color is, there is something so powerful about black and white -- I think the images actually stand out better.

Here are a couple more from the 1940 Popular Photography mag:
