Oh these are stunningly subtle, Manuela. How creative to view gold through the different seasons!

I also love the subtlety and unexpectedness in these. I think you've captured a different but equally real side of gold which can be quite pale and cold. And once again, I really experience your photos as very cinematic. Brrr.

On a less poignant note, this theme and its diverse interpretations reminds me, amusingly, of all the various permutations of Notre Dame football helmets and uniforms that I have witnessed over the years. Each new manifestation never fails to make me ask: What color is gold, really?

I like this take on the gold theme, and the grouping of these together is particularly nice. I think I like the second image best, but they are all nice. Your artistic vision is consistent and clear, Manuela, and it's good to have you back!

Lovely. The color tone and lighting of the winter image is magical.
