Hi Andy... thanks for your comment on Superball.... glad you like it... yes apophysis 2.02z is what i used... as for posting more... lol.. i've been a member for a long time.. and i usually post images everyday what is in my gallery is only half of what i have posted... I dont have as much time at the moment... to do computer.. I do other art too plus Im working and have kids, at the moment im working on a painting for a friend so thats taking up a bit of time.... i'm trying to get back into the swing of things..
Thank you for comment on "medieval ruins in Mirow". I am thankful for your nice comment. This a trailer of the ruins series. Jura, i.e. Jurassic Upland is a beautiful region in Poland. The main feature of the landscape are thick forests with numerous inselbergs on their peaks and slopes, often creating diverse forms and shapes. One of the greatest attractions in Jura are the medieval strongholds and castles, creating a net called "eagles' nests".
Hi Andy, thanks for your suggestions on " excalibur ". This is my first post so I'm kinda feeling my way as I go. But I played around with apophysis so more last nite & keeping your suggestions in mind I saved 'em at a higher resolution. I'll also work on neatening up my images.

Never give up. Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. ~~ Michael Jordan
You found it. :-) Thanks for commenting on it! The next one (first in the series, I get tired of having my gallery out of order) reminds me a bit of barreling down the streets of NFS Underground 120+ mph. :-)
Edit: Thanks for the additional comment, I appreciate it.
thank you for your comment on "coherent", and to be honest im glad you dont get it, doesnt that make it more intriguing? but all in all im glad you like the picture.
Hello Andy, many thanks for your comments about “Bimbadeen”, I’m pleased you like it. I have wanted to do a shot like this for ages and fog is a rarity in my part of the world.

Hi Andy. Thanks for commenting on "Creature from the Deep". To answer your question on 2.02z. I have been playing around with it that last couple of days. It has some nice features but I find it to be very buggy. I haven't given up on it yet. Thanks for asking. Have a great day.
Hi, Andy. Sorry for the delay in thanking you for all of your encouraging comments of late. Was out of town attending to family matters and am way behind in thank yous. I do appreciate the time you take to offer thoughtful commentary on my work!

Hi Andy.. thanks for your comment on Time Travel... im glad you like it.. i have it as desktop at the moment.. =) It took about 4 hours because I render 2048 x 1536 ... the gradient took to the flame perfectly.. i didnt have to fix anything on it.. its straight from apophysis to here..
Thank you for your visit to the"cucumber frog". I am glad you found it interesting. It really resembles me a fresh cucumber with a rough and uneven skin, lol.
Hi Andy! Thanks for the comment on 'Tracks', I really appreciate it! I know that this type of pic isn't all that popular, but I liked it and hoped that someone else may as well. :) Thanks again!

Thanks Andy.. for your lovely comment on UFO... im so glad you liked it... I was amazed how it turned out too... I just sat for ages moving triangles, changing the scripts and variations... i really like this one too... (thanks for the high vote.. I appreciate it.. )
Your karma is already massive, I don't see why you even bother with all these so called "sig tests". *cough*
As for "Endeavor", I posted this on the image:
"As for how I did it, I thought Andy would be the one telling me! Often times, these kind of pictures have just enough color to kill the contrasty look and not enough to look dazzeling. I decided to go for the first route, so I converted the image to monochrome. I thought it would be fun to have the subject be in color, partly to make it obvious he is the subject, partly to include the fact that it was the only obvious color even in the original. My main photo editing program doesn't really do partial images of any type, rather whole images, so I needed to make a cutaway. I tried the color selection tool, but if I got too clsoe to the edges (shadows), it would include most of the photo with it (such poor color distinction), but on the other hand, when I kept a modest distance, the patched in boy would appear to have really think lines (think Lucas's dillema in "Empire Strikes Back", battle of Hoth scene). I ended up using an edge finder by manually placing intricate lines and letting it chose the pest path through those rectangles by choosing places where the contrast changes greatly. When I patched it in and adjusted the brightness and contrast to get the effective mood I wanted, the blues on the shirt were way overblown while some shadows were nearly black. I ended up darkening the backdrop before I placed the subject in and cutting back the saturation on the subject before I flattened it. This allows the image above to be possible. It really sounds more complex than it is. It took me an hour, but mostly because I am not experienced in nit-picking (before yesterday, I had remained a solid fan of entire-image filters)."
Thanks so much Andy, for your gracious comment on 'Autumn Glow', as always is the case, I really appreciate it! If I can somehow manage to even just a little bit be as great as you and the other artists and photographers here, then I will be satisfied.

Much and many Thank You's for your kind feedback on 'Peach Gems', I'm glad you liked it. Didn't do anything except change the color on the originial one, Lavender Gems. :)

Thanks a lot, Andy, for your comment on "Spherical Square". Now that I look at it, it is more of a rectangle. I'm glad you liked it though. I really appreciate it.
I am glad you discovered my "fall coulur palette" and liked it so much. Thank you for leaving me a nice comment. I guess the image captures the essence of fall, that is the reason it is appealing. Stay tuned.

Hello Andy, thank you for your comment on "Unplugged". Sometimes I don't think about creating a pic for a desktop but I see something certain or get a certain idea which must be photographed then. I'm glad you like the lighting and clarity of this image.... your comments on my pics are always welcome and highly appreciated. Bye, Bernd.
Thank you Andy for viewing and giving such nice comments on my Mountain Stream Beauty 2 image. I appreciate you support of my images. This was late afternoon and the low light was drawing me deeper into the forest.

I'm glad that you took the time to view and comment on my Mountain Stream Beauty image. Thank you for the nice comments. I appreciate your support. I would have gone farther up stream but the large rock out cropping on the left stopped me.

Hi there Andy,
Thanks for taking the time to comment on "Island Point" Variety is the spice of life, on this shot it was THAT sun reflection that caught my eye and told me to post it.........John
Thanks Andy, for dropping by and commenting on "Wallowa Lake Afternoon".I'm glad you like 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.

Thanks for commenting on "stuffnstuff". I took 245 shots in the set, so think a couple of hours. I usually fly through pictures, but they take a bit longer with a 10 second timer and extra prep.
Hi there Andy...haven't seen you around here in a long time...welcome back...and many thanks for looking at Animal Instincts...it's not something everyone would like so I'm glad it caught your attention...thanks for dropping by.:Pat.
Hi Andy!
Who Goes There? Tks for your visit to this pic and for your wonderful comments.
It was a nice experience, and unfortunately, due to a computer crash and a lack of video backup, grrrr.....i lost all footage on this fella and every other image other than this one too!
