Hi alain, thanks as always for your comments...with regard to the ir filter, i think i am drawn to it, partly because, like you say the ordinary made better, i like the long exposures on the water too, and also it is something different, and a learning curve for me! i kinda like the kooky effects it gives sometimes.
Salut Alain
Thanx 4 commenting on Avebury Stone Circles they are about the same age as stonehenge, and I believe they have geniune faces in them !!

After so many butterflies , a hegoat in love is welcome..smile! Glad you liked my love story and the head dress of"the Lover hegoat"! thanks for your lovely words! :))
Thanks for the comments on 'Night Lights' very much appreciated. The Giottos monopod is a 5 way telescoping one legger. The one I got is a big beefy one to support a 4lb. lens.

Hi Alain, glad you enjoyed the garden, no, the sky was washed out so i put a gradient over the top, that one seemed to give it a slightly surreal look so i kept it!!

Thanx 4 Your comments, and encouragement on "Bikers" / "The eye" and "Human interest" Sorry but I remain disappointed because my c-index remains low, and I have lost faith in Caedes voters. Is 35mm too disgusting 4 them the poor snobs.

The beer urges me on, the bewitching beer, which sets even a wise man to singing and to laughing gently and rouses him up to dance and brings forth words which were better unspoken.

Hello, Amigo, Alain!
To answer your question, in these 'houses' on the water, in many canals of Groningen, or Amsterdam, it is allowed for
people to live in houses on water. As we are saying in Holland
'Woonboten' (Translation: living on boats)
Many of those 'boathouses', are selfmade creations !
Regards!

Hello Alain! I was returning home from visiting my sister in Florida and stopped at a bridge near Wakula Springs. This group of believers were having baptisms in the cold spring water. Thanks for commenting on my Baptismal Waters image.

Camarade Alain de salutations
I am surprised You liked "Drowning" so much, and faved it. The upload was a response to some of Your recent bizarre brainteasers, quite a few people have downloaded it perhaps it will do well. :o)
La partie vous remercie

Hi Alain, thanks for the comments on the Cumbrian Landscape photo and for having the knowledge and explaining the history behind the geographical divisions of the UK! Very omiss of me to forget to give the facts! :) glad you liked the photo and yes I agree about the metal fence - it would have looked better if it had been wooden!

Thank You so much for the kind words on Sleepless in Germany.
I am really really happy to read that you liked my Pic and took the time to write such a nice comment.
Salut, mon ami!!!J'ai passé une vacance vraiment merveilleuse..!! Le chateau de Vaux Le Vicomte,chateau de Nicolas Fouquet ,Surintendent des finances de Louis XIV,est un des chefs d'oeuvre de modernité et d'élégance,qui a été la source d'inspiration pour le jeune ROI Soleil pour construire Versailles..I'm so glad you liked it and I thank you so much for your nice words!! :)
Alain,
Thank you very much for your comment on "Memories Past", and as for coloring the eyes, actually that's what I did but since my eyes are blue/gray, it blended in with the B&W... If you look well you can see that it's a bit different but it's very slight...
Thanks again!
J'ai visité cette été ,aussi, Barcelona,dont j'ai lu qu'elle a été choisie "la plus belle ville du monde"(Discovery),mais je dois te dire franchement ,qu'à mon avis, c'est Paris qu'on devait choisir..Je suis très heureuse que tu aime mon "Sunset on Seine"!! Merçi, Alain! :))
Je te remercie beaucoup,Alain, pour tes gentiles paroles sur "the Louvre's Pyramid"!..J'ai lu que la pyramide a un bon effet "énérgetique" sur ancien Louvre,du point de vue "fengh-shui"..
You know the other "contrasts" in Paris..the Louvre's Pyramid..the "Listen"statue in front of ST Eustache church..the "Paris plage"phenomenon..DE GUSTIBUS.. Thank you for your kind words on the quality of my work"The Stravinsky's Fountain"..I really appreciated ..!
Thanks for your continued support on my images. On the last one you mentioned foreshortening. That is a term i've never heard before. What does it mean? :P
Hi Alain!!Thanks so much for visiting my gallery & commenting on "Peaceful" "The red house" "Sweden Soderkoping" and "The chapel"
very much appreciated.
Christer.
So good to know you found my "Christmas tree" appealing and were so kind to leave me some nice comment. I guess the Christmas theme with its unique atmosphere is attracting so many nice voices.
:) thank you for your comment. It is the first in a series, and there will be poem spread across them (I updated the picture). I wanted to put the words on after I uploaded the image last night, but it took hours for someone to move it to the New Images gallery. By then I'd long since gone to bed. Have a good weekend! Quiet
hi alian, thanks for your comment on spiralling, i dunno why you think it is distorted??? its exactly how it looks looking down from the top, also, i actually faded the colours as the yellows were much stronger, very yellow and orange with the lights going up the stairs. glad you liked it anyway :-) Jan
Quand as-tu visité la dernière fois Paris?..Je suis vraiment amoureuse de cette merveilleuse cité!!Je te remercie beaucoup pour tes gentils mots sur "Sunset on Seine"..!..au moment de ma photo,le ciel était superbe..
