Jim,
By your own words, you might be lazy, but definitely not untalented. Whether false modesty or not, there are some excellent photos here. My favorites are the series of 3 at the beach, and a few capturing those less fortunate souls of our society.
Expect to see more great ones. Keep shooting. Sometimes we don't see the picture while we are photographing, but rather, afterwards as we stare at our monitors.
Kind regards,
Lilia

very nice

Mis-labeled lens or not, this is a great image! The fragile child framed against the power of the waves.

I have, obviously, mislabeled the lens used in this series. Apologies. The lens used was an Olympus 50-200mm 2.8-3.5.
