oh! don't forget to support these featured artists by viewing their work, but also faving the News Article you can find here:
news.deviantart.com/article/92…
[by faving with the heart below my icon, it bring my attention to the dA community (not for MY "fame", but for the artists who are featured there! thank you all for appreciating the article and the feature]
_{{{also, you can expect my watcher-suggested feature very soon; keep sending your suggestions in thumb form and i should be getting that up soon}}}

You know?
Sometimes the title completes the photograph.
Sometimes a photo doesn't even NEED a title at all.
I obviously love photos of children; my front-page explains why.
Then anything emotive just calls to me.
I wish I'd collected more photos of men here as well;
but, this feature is really about an eclectic mix of everything.
Sure emotive photos of people are most frequented in my faves,
but I love a truly great conceptual piece,
a piece where the title does the speaking,
a piece of traditional work I couldn't possibly get away from.
I hope you all continue to share your favourites with me and open my eyes to new artists.
It's true that I watch quite possibly more artists than most could even handle.
But, every artist here on dA brings something new to the table.
Even if they submit or specialize in the same categories; every artist is unique in their own way.
Now, I know it's been said time and time again about cliches and "remakes" of the same idea around here.
But, I do hope that you take the time to look through each of these, or at least the ones that call your attention.
Because, to me, even if they've "been done" each person's eyes, or body language tell a different story.
Or maybe the makeup is something I've never seen; so much time and creativity gone into it.
Or maybe it's a concept so pure and intriguing.
Or maybe its colours are so sharp, or maybe even pale and soft that you're just enraptured.
Or maybe the title .. yes, the title (which I don't have posted this time around), just finishes off a piece and you'll fall in love.
most of all:
ENJOY!
(there is just SO SOO much talent and beauty here)
