hello, through my stupidity i think i sent you a reply saying 'ok' to a message u sent me. What i really meant to say was -
Thankyou, and i hope that my images will develop to become better and more impressive, im still really learning the ropes. I wouldnt say my parents were proud of me, they just think im messing around, but hopefully in the future, when my work becomes more serious, perhaps for means of employment, they will then realize that i wasnt just playing with colours,
thankyou again. isobel (izzyrizzy)
I appreciate the kind comments. Sometimes I can be a bit critical because that's my job. So if I point out something that could be improved IMHO, I just want to see you being the best that you can be. I fully acknowledge that I could be wrong.
-P-
Thanks for the comments on 'Wolf Creek Pass". had to use a flash that day because my camera is so slow (a Kodak DC290). It was very dark and hard to see as the snow was falling fast & furious. I am a novice in computer anything...e-mail is a challenge for me. I would love to know how to create a grayscale mask in Photoshop. I tried to make sense of the online manual for photoshop but it seems too complicated for me at this time. Will keep plugging away until I get it. I appreciate you taking the time to post your comments & suggestions.
Hey, Pete -- appreciate your time looking through the rest of my stuff. Glad you like 'em! You are certainly taking your work into new and wonderful directions.
Thank you Peter for your comments on Sinapsy, Jamaican jungle and for your suggest to use the Apophysis flame fractal first user the give me a goood teaching about new plugin.I'll try for sure.Good easter
Thank you for your constructive criticism on "Buttermilk Waterfall". I just took that one down and uploaded a more "lively" shot of it. If you get a chance, please take a look. Its called "Buttermilk Waterfall Pt. 2"
Thanks again. Hope you like the new one!
Hi Peter, thanks for your comments on Blue Palm. I like changing things around, seeing how things look if they were this way or that. Don't have a clue what I'm doing, but it's fun. Thanks again.
Thanks Peter for your comment on "The Rage of Fire" and especially thank you for your comment on "Buttermilk Waterfall Pt 2" I was sure you would like it better :) Thanks again!
hey thanks for the comment on "the faucet god"... i wasn't sure what to do with the original but i wanted to emphasize the "piece" of water that had the face, so i just colored it and dimmed the rest.. came out pretty weird but i had no other ideas
True, True, I did not spend a lot of time on that pic, I did it in a hurry, but many thanks to your comment, maybe i will rework it, if i can find that Bryce CD......thanks again
I did not take any offense to your comments. I was always taught to "Respect my elders" :-P im j/p. thanks again for your comments and suggestions and support :-)
Very impressive dossier peter: I am in high anticipation of the completion of your site
Do you have any other documentation of your work other then on your website that I could possibly read about.
Hey Peter, thanks for the comment on (Easy Street) and glad to see you back. Hadn't seen any new images from you in a while. Saw you posted some today I'll have to check them out when I get home from work ;). Thanks again for the comment, I'm glad you liked it.

WOA! Over six thousand?! Thats a lot of travel time, you are truly a man of the world now!
I take it you took plenty of snaps along the journey? I hope to be seeing more images soon!

If my comment on your work ever seems to criticise, it does not. It is always so that we may learn together.
Hi Peter, thank you for the helpful comment on (Pedro's Palace). The original shot is definitely in focus. I put this glaze over it but since I am on vacation I am doing image editing on my laptop and I never can get the same feel for pictures on here that I do on my desktop monitor at home. I am going to re-upload the picture either later tonight or tomorrow morning without the glaze. I would love to hear from you on whether you think that solves the problem. Thanks again for bringing it to my attention~
Hi Peter. Thank you for the very flattering remarks you left on Sittin' in the Morning Sun. I'm very happy you thought so much of it and that you let me know!
Thanks for checking out (Pedro's Palace) again Peter. I will steer clear of any fancy edits until I get back on a real monitor :). I'm glad you liked the picture and I appreciate the high vote, as well as the heads up about the other version~
Hi Peter. Sally and I thank you very much for the comment on Sally & BJ #2. It was a pleasure to read. That big word, that you did spell correctly by the way, was the effect I'd hoped to achieve. So, an extra thank you for your insight there too.
Thank you Peter very much for your supportive and professional comment on "The Predator". To tell you the truth, this was my first macro shot that I posted on Caedes. I thought I was not good at it, at least until your kind comment. Thanx.
Thank you Peter for your comments on "Rivers of Golden Light". I'm pleased you liked it.
The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist’s way of scribbling “Kilroy was here” on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass.
William Faulkner
Thanks for the comments and input on "Swans".I do appreciate it and I do agree with you about it not being quite right.I posted it against my better judgement anyway months after the capture.I dont have photoshop but I am beginning to realize that it is an essential tool for digital photography.
Hi Peter, I'm flattered by your comments on Orb and have no problem with you using it for fun. Would you mind if I see what you come up with when you are done just for fun?
Hey Peter, I really appreciate your comments on those 2 images of mine (and in the PM). I have often wondered about computer drawing in photoshop, but how do I do it? DOnt you need to buy one of those USB pen and pad which are like $100 ?
Attention! This is a blanket letter to answer many comments about my Goodbye Platoro image. It does look bad doesn't it?
Wow!! I just got home and opened up, and looked at my, Goodbye Platoro, image. I never meant it to look like this. I broke my own rule. NEVER use a laptop to make any corrections. This image was a bit to red and it was light and lacked contrast. So before we locked up the cabin I sat down and made some "corrections", apparently viewing the screen at a wrong angle. Darryl (+Mayne) noticed some type of line down the center of the photo I cannot see it so I cannot say what could have caused it. There is however a thin green line that runs across the image. It is more noticeable on the right side of the image than on the left. I shot 80 images that day and all have the same line. I have tried to reproduce the line but it went away. This is scary as I do not know when it will reappear
I have used three different flash cards But it did not show up.. I will be replacing them to be on the safe side I certainly hope it is not in the camera's electronics. As far as tweaking things in Photoshop CS. I do have my CS uploaded and ready to go, tomorrow. I shoot how I feel so nobody can reproduce the image as I felt it when I created the image. Thanks anyway. I will just take my lumps on this one and press on. Thank all of you for taking the time to post your comments. Something I plan on doing more of.

Photography is not a trade - it is an art. It is more that an art.
It is a solar phenomenon,

hey Peter.. ty for the very kind comment on Amalgamate.. i agree that Bryce can get old quickly.. i took a break of a month or two and came up with some interesting ideas.. unfortunately, i dont like to tie up my computer with those multiple day renders.. soon tho.. i have a few images sure to intrigue ;).. ty again for the comment and support..
Your pretty much right on the Fact that I will personally say I put very little effort creating Jesus.com However the reasoning behind that is that the message is more important I actually wanted to just have the phrase with a black background but this guy on here did that with ( I am Art) probably seen his peice well he beat me to the draw @ any rate I do put alot more time into what I'd call my darkside... I'm big on skulls I have several on my inked body. I do however Peter appreciate your brutal honesty , truth be known I would not want it any other way "Critic or not" "Religious or not" we need more people like you with the balls to call it how they see it.
On the flip side Thanks for taking your time to check out Scary4U it was all done in PSP8 and if I recall I finalized it with the push filter. Although I do have Adobe Photoshop CS , I'll be damned if it's way more confussing to navigate with it's layout then Paint shop pro 8.I have another version I am wanting to upload so I'd like it if you'd check it out just give me some feedback on a comparision of the two.
I was checking out your virtual human website as well as your personal website. You seem like a very busy person! Your creations are extensive, and numerous!
I was told when I was younger that because I was dyslexic and had other disabilities I would never read or learn at a normal pace. Good thing I didn't believe them.
Thanks for your comment on Wait, and for all of your help!
I will tell my pal about your comments on frames of mind, but you did make me want to play with it.
he was just really excited about this picture i so i told him i would put it up there.
he doesnt really play with photos or anything, so i was pretty impressed with him. thank you for the suggestions!
Thanks for your comments on "Peacock Butterfly", much appreciated. Unfortunately there are not so many butterflies this year - hopely next year will be better.

Stir Fry Starter Kit was just the starting items for my stir fry. I added garlic, sugar peas, broccoli, bean sprouts, water chestnuts, baby corn, shrimp, chicken and a stir fry sauce. The original ingredients were just too pretty not to use for a still life. I'm glad you like it. Thanks for the nice comments Peter. I appreciate your support of this image.

Hi Peter, thanks for your comment on Sapphire, very much appreciated. Sorrry for the lack of description:) I think I remember how i did it, so here goes;
The main part is one fractal explorer fractal, edited in photoshop. A bold colour gradient was added and a slight bit of apophysis blended to the purple centre.
Thanks for the feedback on Reaching Higher. I agree, a lot of work needs to be put into art. Good fractals only come after much time has been spent developing them into something unique and artisticly pleasant.
Peter, thank you for your comments on the essence of the photo (New Hampshire Calm 3). One can capture a scene, reproduce an image but rarely capture the elements that touch the soul. Such was the morning and the luck of the camera.
Hello, thanks for commenting on 'My Pet Blob' I really appreciate your comments =).
p.s. I did the water effect using the ocean option on the Filter-Pixellate menu on photoshop.
Thank you Peter, your kind and complimentary words and high marks on The Fire Within are very much appreciated...I am pleased to know you enjoy it...dare I mention that there could be a slight religious implication to this one? lol...Pat.
Oh, thanks again Peter for stopping by on Newport Bridge and Chip or Dale?...my 'eye' and I both thank you for your approving reviews and no, I do not do this for a living...many times my skill does not match what I envision...you just don't get to see those ones, lol...thank you again...your time and comments are very much appreciated.:Pat.
Greetings Peter...Thank you for your recent comments on "Sarah & Domino". No offense taken. ;) I appreciate the compliments and the helpful hints. I didn't want to show so much of me...just a little hint. I was more interested in letting the art show thru, not the artist. LOL Glad you enjoyed it. Stop by again. Sarah :)
Peter, I want to thank you so much for you kind comments. I appreciate very much your input...speaking of a "good eye" ...YOU have definitely got a great one. I love your artistic creations...thank you again my friend.
And many thanx for the comment about my classic yellow car...I have a weakness for such beautiies it seems...its my Dads fault..he was alway "makin" me enjoy them!! heheh
Hey Peter :D
Thankyou for all your recent comments on my work...I don't mind your criticisms - they are very useful to hear for when I'm working on my next project ^_^
Also thanks for helping out my little brother...he did appreciate your feedback :]
Best wishes
Hi, thanks for taking the time to comment on Eventuality.. I am just learning how to use the program.. I haven't had it very long.. I'll have to see what I can do with it,,
Hi Peter, thanks for you comments on "Blue Eyes" i know what you mean about the blue it was actually more blue orignally i desaturated it slightly as i did not want the viewer to too quickly focus upon that smidgen of colour but rather notice after a minute and go "hey hang on a minute", though i admit i may have lost that effect with the title... - d'oh!

Hello Peter, I appreciate your visit and very positive feedback on my little snail. Can't wait to see your reworked picture. Thank you so much.
Sincerely, Fred
Thank you Peter for your kind comments on "Sleepy Swan". It was a real pleasure to photograph this bird. He tolerated me for a lot longer than I would have.

Hello again Peter! Thanks for the comments on "The Enchanted Forest".
I haven't had time to get out into the wild yet this whole year and it's beginning to show. I think I'm beginning to unravel around the edges. Hopefully this fall will be different.
...one of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one's own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought.
Albert Einstein
thanks, peter!
you really have knowledge about photography. I admit, I´m just a beginner and have no technical knowledge. Only use my camera as extension of my soul. What drives me is a motive not quality of shot taken _ so, what comes up.. I know I used to much zoom and low resolution but this man in a little boat was so interesting....with the sun falling in the sea....
now, i think i should learn more...
your every comment would be apreciated...thanks, again, like your style....
Thank you, Peter, for your observations expressed on Nightmares ... I was duty-bound to include the outline ... oh .. she said I didn't have to ... but, yeah, I did
Thanks for the visit and the comments about "Carcassonne Aude Gate". The city of Carcassonne is amazing, and is a completely restored 12th century walled city. I have been fortunate to spend 28 days there. I only wish I could go again :-)
By the way, did you get any good images of Hunter Thompson's sendoff?
Hi again. You saw the "Fingers of the Lake" photos. There was actually a third in the series, but I guess it was too much, and the mods deleted it. It's OK. The response I've received from them was worth it. Thank you very much for the visit.
Thanks for touching base on "Nikoli @ work", Im still getting the hang of things and the size of the piece was not the best. Would not mind the answer was right in front of me afterwards. Please Peter could you keep an eye on my future pieces and let me know what you think?
